100 things I learned from End of Watch
1. Big Evil is called Big Evil because his evil is big
2. Gang members can't aim AK47s very well
3. Backup always arrives a minute too late
4. Gangsters REALLY like to swear
5. If it is necessary to run through an open courtyard with people at the railings shooting just wish really hard for all of them to miss and they will.
6. If your partner's down and the two of you are out in the open, do NOT attempt to get to cover. Just sit there, yelling where is everyone.
7. When you get married, do a weird, embarrassing dance with your new wife to some mid-eighties hip hop record. Roll around on the floor in your good suit for good measure.
8. Annoy coworkers by continuing to film with a shakey hand held camera even though they asked you repeatedly to stop.
9. If a person acts all sanctimonious and holier-than-thou to his coworkers, telling them on various occasions that that their employer will someday get them "up the a--", ironically THAT PERSON might be the one to end up with the gross, career-ending eye injury.
10. Corollary to no. 9 above: if a knife hits the optic nerve in just the right place, the victim will start babbling incoherently about their bullet proof vest.
11. If you make finger signs to people way way up high in a helicopter, they just might be able to see your fingers, even though they seem impossibly far above you.
12. Weird criminals who make use of Los Angeles bungalows for their dirty deeds will often remove all the drywall from the ceiling, exposing the ceiling joists, as a strange form of interior decoration.
13. When running from the bad guys, if you pick an apartment door at random to hide in, the person inside will be a hysterical hispanic woman, loudly screaming for the saints in spanish, thereby drawing attention to your hideout.
