Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

David Ayer's buddy movie, apart from the found-footage gimmick that underpins the storytelling, is extremely plausible.

Jake Gyllenhaal and Michael Peña are the LA cops who, like all the best partners from High Street Blues' Renko and Bobby to Starsky and Hutch, wisecrack, share their secrets and cover each others' backs. The chemistry between the heroic duo is never less than compelling in this ultimately depressing look at policing gangs in South Central.
