Gangster Squad

In post-World War II Los Angeles, ruthless mobster Mickey Cohen has established a stranglehold on the city's criminal underworld, controlling everything from drugs and guns to prostitution and gambling. His violent and oppressive rule goes unchallenged as he has most of the police and local politicians in his pocket. Determined to bring Cohen down, Police Chief Bill Parker secretly recruits Sargent John O'Mara to form a special team. O'Mara assembles an elite group of officers, chosen for their unique skills and willingness to operate outside the law if necessary.

The squad includes tech-savvy officer Conway Keeler, sharp-shooting Cowboy Max Kennard, Kennard's loyal partner Navidad Ramirez, street-smart Coleman Harris, and Sergeant Jerry Wooters, who has a personal vendetta against Cohen. The covert team embarks on a ruthless campaign to dismantle Cohen's operations, targeting his businesses, disrupting his operations, and aiming to undermine his power. Their actions ignite a brutal war between the police and Cohen's gang, forcing the officers to navigate dangerous terrain filled with betrayals, moral dilemmas, and personal sacrifices.
