Jake Gyllenhaal and Michael Pena look to get more than they bargained for in ‘End of Watch,’ the David Ayer-directed film about two cops facing the wrath of a drug cartel.* Now there’s a NSFW red-band trailer for the movie.

And from the trailer it looks like much of the film is made up of found footage. That might work in the context of this narrative, but it’s a genre we’d hope would be dying soon. ‘End of Watch’ opens September 21, and also features Anna Kendrick, Natalie Martinez, Frank Grillo, America Ferrera, Cody Horn and David Harbour.
Here’s the official synopsis:

A powerful story of family, friendship, love, honor and courage, End Of Watch stars Academy Award(R) nominee Jake Gyllenhaal and Michael Pena as young Los Angeles police officers Taylor and Zavala as they patrol the city’s meanest streets of south central Los Angeles. Giving the story a gripping, first-person immediacy, the action unfolds through footage from the handheld HD cameras of the police officers, gang members, surveillance cameras, and citizens caught in the line of fire to create a riveting portrait of the city’s most dangerous corners, the cops who risk their lives there every day, and the price they and their families are forced to pay.

And here’s the trailer:
