The final chapter of the Detective Knight trilogy, this action/thriller has almost nothing to do with the previous two entries, and, despite some ambitious ideas, it's listless and cursory.

The Detective Knight series should have ended at two movies. Instead, there’s a third movie, and it’s largely a nonstarter.

Would I ever pay money to watch this in a theater, the answer is no. Would I purchase or download this movie on a streaming service, again, the answer is no.

Drake and his team are simply trying to survive the filmmaking process, not establish a riveting examination of bruised honor and rising crime.

A must-see for fans of Bruce Willis. Those who are into the action genre as well should check it out because of the added character depth and cast.

In the trilogy resolution, Detective Knight: Independence, the film lies on Willis' shoulders as his storyline becomes crucial to the main story in this one. This is now his territory and he’s not afraid to show it.

Just was not as good as the first 2. Also im not sure if it was because i watch on prime but the description it gave about the movie did not actually match what happened at all in the movie.

So this is the 3rd of a trilogy and with each movie they kept getting worse. This one by far is the worst of the bunch. The acting is bad and the writing is worse. The audience score of 81 is definitely sympathy for Bruce Willis. In this last movie you can really see his illness affecting him, it’s obvious at the end that they dubbed his voice.

If you like bad movies you are in luck! That is shockingly bad. In fact, one of the worse movies I've ever seen!

A complete mess that barely includes Bruce Willis. This is so laughably thrown together it's hard to figure what is going on. We're all just here for the sadness that is Willis, a shell of his former self. It isn't worth the time. Final Score: 0/10
