Awful, awful movie. Direction was stiff, scrip was stupid, acting was...awful, except Terrence Howard, he managed to just be semi ok. Alex Baldwin wasn't in it enough to be awful and the other star, who is normally a good actor just chewed up scenery like he was doing impressions George C. Scott. The female lead was adequate and basically just blabbed and showed cleavage. How they got stars of that quality to be in this piece of junk is a question that needs an answer! I loved the end credits there were enough producers and executive producer to do 13 movies much less this sad excuse and waste of human endeavor. Listen to the reviews that give this a 1, they are right. I gave it a 2 only because Terrance Howard is in it and that is worth a 2 even on a bad day.

There were six people in the theater on a holiday weekend. That should have told me beware. The acting from a Baldwin was the worst ever. The story/editing was hard to follow. Please wait for it to be on TV for free, do not waist your money. One good thing I can say is it was nice seeing people smoking and drinking. As mystery the movie pointed to everyone making still harder to follow. Terrence Howard was great and maybe the only reason to see this movie. The other actors should not have been a part of this waist of film A C-movie at best better for a Saturday afternoon double feature than a main event.

I expected more and knew in the first few minutes it would be a flop. Bad acting, bad story and direction. Alec's acting was pretty much the same. Terrence Howard and Esai Moralas's acting was not good at all. I paid for this movie and tried my best to give it a chance but felt I wasted money on this flop. I think they should've passed on signing up, I guess once you become older it's hard to get those perfect scripts or phone calls from your top directors and producers. Nicky Whelan's acting was not good as well. I could expect her to be in this type of movie. Wished she didn't do the whole plastic party on her face, it truly shows and the bad acting made it worse.

This film was embarrassing to watch. Had I read the reviews on IMDb, I would've passed on it. And it's a shame, too, because of the well-known actors on hand - Esai Morales, Alec Baldwin and Terrance Howard. Crescent City had Howard's detective character come off as weak and spineless, barely able to do his job. The movie had a great fake out in the beginning where they showed the killer who was clearly a woman, but the reveal later on showed that it was Morales in drag. What a rip! My biggest grievance is the ending. Morales and Howard duke it out in the end on Morales's lawn, then in the next scene, Howard is in a hospital bed. Okay. So what happed to Morales the serial killer? Was he killed? Arrested? Sent off to a gulag deep in Siberia? The movie doesn't say. Another annoying bit was Howard killed the kid which, supposedly, he didn't remember because he blacks out every time he holds a gun on somebody. Yeah, whatever. Nevertheless, he did kill an unarmed kid, yet the chief of detectives gave him back his badge with no investigation? The movie basically said Morales, who took the trailer kid's bag of money, was worse Howard who shot him/ I'm angry I wasted time with this tripe. I gave it two stars instead of one because of the clean, crisp cinematography.

I started watching this for the presence of the ever great actor Terrence Howard and Alec Baldwin. Terrence Howard still oozes cool, but Alec Baldwin is phoning his performance in. This is not a B-movie, but it is cop movie without cojones, without soul. It's just going through the motions of a below average predictable, boring cop story we have already seen a kazillion times before. NOT thrilling. NOT suspenseful. NOT original. It's a total nothing burger, that is incredibly tedious to watch. These actors deserve a better script and a much better direction and production. Definitely to be avoided.

Alec Baldwin, Terrance Howard and Esai Morales all in top notch films, should all be ashamed of themselves taking roles in this mindless dribble of a film..omg! The story was very poorly delivered, the acting atrocious, no one is likeable or believable and Terrance Howard's character had to be depicted as the black married man (of course) being unfaithful to his wife but even outside of the that, he just came off super lame and weak on screen. I really try giving films with good actors the benefit of the doubt but of a surety, there are no benefits with Crescent City only doubtful anyone will enjoy this crap. Believe every negative review. This was one of the worst, I've ever seen. It was just plain awful.
