Plot Summary
Sgt. Jack Grimaldi is a cop who wanted it bad and got it worse - he's fuelled by desire. A veteran cop on loan to the Organized Crime Task Force, Jack watches other people for a living. Once, in the faded past of his youth, it was an important job but now Jack sees that life on the other side of the binoculars has that little extra something - extra sex, extra money, extra excitement - that he is missing.

Top Critics' Reviews
Rotten: For all its promise, and for all the brittle beauty of Dariusz Wolski's cinematography, Romeo Is Bleeding eventually collapses under the weight of its violent affectations.
Rotten: The far-fetched plotting eventually goes so far over the top that pic flirts with inventing a new genre of film noir camp.
Rotten: Stylistic but ultimately unsatisfying.
Rotten: Romeo is most notable for being the first film of the year to cash in on post-Bobbitt fears of castrating (and worse) females.
