Cop Out Trailers

Detectives Jimmy and Paul, despite nine years as partners, can still sometimes seem like polar opposites—especially when Paul's unpredictable antics get them suspended without pay. Already strapped for cash and trying to pay for his daughter's wedding, Jimmy decides to sell a rare baseball card that's worth tens of thousands. Unfortunately, when the collector's shop is robbed and the card vanishes with the crook, Paul and Jimmy end up going rogue, tracking down the card and the drug ring behind its theft, all on their own time and without any backup—except for each other.

TrueHello

Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

As a huge Fan of Bruce Willis I was just sorry at every unfunny line he was presumably forced to utter, and just when you think it can't get any less funny, Tracy Morgan does some odd, long drawn out episode to make sure it does. But the real shock for me was when the credits rolled up and Kevin Smith was named as the Director, I had to google it to confirm it was indeed 'the' Kevin Smith, I am still in shock.

With the talents of Bruce Willis and Tracy Morgan and a Hollywood size budget. I can't believe how someone could write such a lame script.Tracy Morgan was the only good thing about this Movie. He was funny despite a meh ish script.Bruce Willis was a boring straight man. He's only really interesting when he has a good script because he is a uninteresting actor,which he did not have in this filmThe storyline is very generic and boring and garners no interest for the action.There were a few good moments with Tracy Morgan like in the beginning and his Wikipedia facts about apes giving oral that NEARLY made me laugh out loud but that's all.

I really enjoy Bruce Willis in about everything he does.. this one he wasn't near as rough and tumble as usual , he was really funny in this one. the story goes something like this.. Bruce's character has to pay for a wedding which he can't afford, because him and his partner got suspended because of a bad drug bust, his partner think 's his wife is cheating on him so he set's up a video camera in their bedroom,, so back to bruce, he decides to sell a rare baseball card worth lot's of money to pay for his daughter's wedding and make sure that the step dad doesn't show him up,, plans get foiled when the guy he sold it to his store get's robbed by the same bunch who him and his partner busted.. very funny movie,, good action and buddy cop laughs , not as good as other Bruce Willis movies ,, this one is more for the laughs.. and sorta of a spoof in many ways of earlier buddy cop films.

Kevin Smith's filmography has always been very hit-or-miss, but at least all his movies up to this one had some identity to them. You watched them for five seconds and you immediately knew they were Kevin Smith movies, with all their good and their bad sides. Smith is/was a director with a truly unique style, and that's so rare in Hollywood you just have to savour such a thing as much as possible. How he rolled into this project, I'll never know. The guy's always been a writer first and a director second, why the hell would you hire him to direct someone else's script? Why the hell would you give a big-budget action movie to someone whose other films consist entirely of people sitting around talking? It's a mystery to me, but all of this just seems like a huge waste of time. "Cop Out" isn't even that terrible a movie really, but it's so generic and so different from Smith's other work that it still truly sticks out like a sore thumb. It's all stuff we've seen a hundred times before, and often done by better actors. Wow, a hard-boiled older cop teams up with an eccentric crazy younger cop, this kind of project only comes by once in a lifetime! The forgettability of this thing is striking, and that's something you'd just never expect from Smith. I hated "Jersey Girl", but at least it made me feel something (i.e. hatred). This one is just...there. Useless movie.
