Series four of the pugnacious policier strikes a familiar chord: the vicious circle of rule-bending, bloody vengeance and internal investigation. Captain Eddy Caplan (Jean-Hugues Anglade) tracks down his beloved colleague Roxanne, while the bull-nosed Walter is itching to bring down a Turkish crime lord. Illegality remains rife among the cops, and it takes Eddy’s convict brother to remind him of his moral responsibility.Level heads are called for... except this is Braquo . Cue another of those viscerally exciting Heat-style shootouts, and the grand-guignol execution of one of the series’ arch-villains.
