A cute little love letter to 80's buddy cop films. Kids might not enjoy it but those who grew up to Lethal Weapon, Robocop and their ilk will love it.

Atrocious, whatever you think about Kevin Smith, he certainly does better work when writing his own material.

Unexpectedly more gritty than funny, not that it's funny. Last thing I expected was to like the plot, which I found surprisingly unique, but again is terribly unfunny. Bruce Willis sleepwalks his way through and somehow that's what works best; an indifferent cop who's been doing this shit for far too long.

If you haven't already written Cop Out off as a poor buddy cop film, I can only hope that you will give it a look. It's a really funny film that, like Morgan's character, pays homage to other films. It takes direct inspiration from 80's buddy cop films, but uses that inspiration to make an incredibly enjoyable film. The characters are likable and develop throughout, and when the film goes for an emotional response, it achieves it!

tracy morgan pretty much ruined this. he just might be the most annoying person in the world.

If you want people to stop trashing your movies on the internet, maybe you should make good ones?

One of those so absurdly bad that it's funny movies. I can't imagine it will have much rewatch value (so this rating most likely will be lowered after seeing it a second time), but for a one-time view, it definitely pulls out a good few laughs.

awful movie

Seems like a generic movie cops, as have millions of these, after Beverly Hills Cop, with action and comedy. But it is not successful in any genre. And I usually like the comedies of Kevin Smith, but this is sucks.

A very weak addition to the buddy cop genre. Not funny nor thrilling.

Bad Movie

Bruce Willis as... you guessed it... a cop. Tracy Morgan as... you guessed it... an idiot. It's weak and formulaic. I'm disappointed in Kevin Smith for taking on this weak script that seems more like an homage to better movies than an original in itself. Once again we have a dad who couldn't pull his weight in his responsibilities as a husband so now his last chance for redemption is to do something big to impress his daughter, when all she really wants is a relationship with her father.

Good movie and VERY FUNNY.

REVIEW TO DO

I love everyone involved with the project, but the film is very forgettable, with only a few cheap laughs. Still worth one watch, but doesn't stick out from any kind of crowd.

The plot is bad, but there were a few laugh-out-loud funny jokes that enabled me to give this a 4/10.

So badly written. The movie hardly makes any sense. What makes even less sense is how Tracy Morgan's character is even a cop and why a woman like Rashida Jones would be married to him. Let's not forget Bruce Willis who shows less charisma with each movie he does.

35.250

The hideously misanthropic Cop Out is defined not by a laugh count of any substance but by its utter contempt for both characters and audience. Having descended from the heights of 1996's Chasing Amy to this bloated, racist, atrociously choreographed bomb of a buddy cop movie, director Kevin Smith has abandoned any and all aesthetic sincerity, reducing that which the flawed Rush Hours at least attempted to engagingly stylise to the lowly levels of so many Z-grade slashers.

Smith's staging, composition, editing and humor mark him as utterly incompetent.

All because of Tracy Morgan.

"A variety of scenarios provides ample opportunities for humor, yet most are lazily wasted." - Nick Schager

Originally titled A Couple Of Dicks. Basically, Smith is trying to do Hot Fuzz in American. Bad idea. Loud, abrasive, and most of the time sadly unfunny.

Mildly amusing in some parts, boring in others.

One of the very few movies I never finished. I usually force my self to sit through them, but I was in bed watching it online and I feel asleep and there just wasn't enough going for it to make be come back to it when I woke up.

Tracy Morgan is very funny in this film, and Seann William Scott is also funny. However the script really needs some work and there are some jokes that fall flat. It is fine that Kevin Smith tries something different here but I definitely prefer his films when he writes them.
