    Or I can just go with plain ole: A rogue Detroit cop commanders a truck full of drugs which he must use to trade for the life of his girlfriend.

    Okay, All issues are valid and I get where they come from. A concern I'm seeing here is that you guys appear to be predicting the story based from the log, which is fine.

    Okay,

    All issues are valid and I get where they come from. A concern I’m seeing here is that you guys appear to be predicting the story based from the log, which is fine. Although, the angle of this log is to create interest and hook a reader with as many elements as possible within a very short writing sample — indeed a very reason why writing loglines are so challenging and fun.

    So, that’s why I keep including the K-9 — but only because this is a serious cop and dog story where they save each others lives and save the day. Now, If that reminds you of a comedy, like Turner and Hooch, Reno or K-9 then I think I understand why — there seems to be few or no serious cop/dog buddy movies to reference. I guess, there could be a reason why this story doesn’t work, I dunno. But, aside from that, I’m not trying to convey a comedy whatsoever, rather, I’m trying to stay large, gritty and in your face with this story.

    So, for the log’s sake, here’s a beat:

    — Cop and K-9 help other cops bust a large shipment of synthetic drugs that threaten a new utopian community build on the old streets of Detroit by a billionaire philanthropist. The community will act as the containment for the 1 day chase.
    — Cop saves a female cop’s life and they fall in love. Cop also reveals his traumatic military past and how it culminates into who he is and why he does certain things.
    — Cop realizes that he’s now a pawn for the philanthropist in his efforts to wipe out what’s left of the local narcotic competition.
    — Cop and K-9 steal a secondary, and much larger shipment from the philanthropist, get boxed within the corrupt community and must survive on their own while corrupt police and hired guns chase them down.
    — Philanthropist kidnaps Cop’s love interest and forces an epic showdown, Ala Die Hard style.

    Forced to steal a truck loaded with a deadly designer drug, a narcotics cop, his dog and his new girlfriend must somehow survive the night inside of a Detroit neighborhood while on the run from a ruthless cartel that will stop at nothing to extract revenge.

    How’s this one?

    Please don’t give up on me. 🙂

    Tony.

    This kind of brings it all together, though: A cop and his K-9 companion must survive one night on the abandoned streets of Detroit with a truck load of synthetic drugs stolen from a ruthless cartel who will do anything to get it back.
