As part of their training, Jake Gyllenhaal and Michael Peña spent five months doing 12-hour ride-alongs with on-duty LAPD officers. During Gyllenhaal's first ride-along, he witnessed a murder.
Most of the crude banter between Jake Gyllenhaal and Michael Peña was improvised by the two.
The scene near the end of the movie where Mike and Brian are in pursuit of a silver minivan and then crash into it: the crash was not scripted. Michael Peña, who was driving the patrol car at that moment, actually crashed into the back of the minivan by accident.The director had had the anti-lock brakes removed from the patrol car because they would cause the camera to shake. Also, the actors didn't know that the road on which they were filming the scene had recently been repaved. So when Michael Peña hit the brakes, the patrol car skidded across the road for about a 150 feet right into the back of the minivan deploying the airbags.
In law enforcement, "end of watch" has two meanings. It commonly refers to the end of a police officer's shift. (Some agencies call shifts "watches".) It can also refer to the date of an officer's death if he is killed in the line of duty.
After Taylor and Zavala pull over the male in the pickup who tries to shoot Zavala, Taylor holds up four fingers to Orozco when she asks, "Are you good?" This is often used by police to signal "Code Four," meaning "I'm okay; no additional assistance needed at this time."
"[first lines] Brian Taylor: I am the police, and I'm here to arrest you. You've broken the law. I did not write the law. I may even disagree with the law but I will enforce it. No matter how you plead, cajole, beg or attempt to stir my sympathies, nothing you do will stop me from placing you in a steel cage with gray bars. If you run away I will chase you. If you fight me I will fight back. If you shoot at me I will shoot back. By law I am unable to walk away. I am a consequence. I am the unpaid bill. I am fate with a badge and a gun. Behind my badge is a heart like yours. I bleed, I think, I love, and yes I *can* be killed. And although I am but one man, I have thousands of brothers and sisters who are the same as me. They will lay down their lives for me, and I them. We stand watch together. The thin-blue-line, protecting the prey from the predators, the good from the bad. We are the police."
"Mike Zavala: My Grandmother said, "If you can live without her, then man-up and cut her off. Don't string her along.""
