Cop Out

Available at Video Ezy now!

Kevin Smith's follow up to Zack and Miri Make a Porno is a crime-comedy about two longtime NYPD partners on the trail of a stolen, rare, mint-condition baseball card who find themselves up against a merciless, memorabilia-obsessed gangster.

Jimmy (Bruce Willis) is the veteran detective whose missing collectible is his only hope to pay for his daughter's upcoming wedding, and Paul (30 Rock's Tracy Morgan) is his 'partner-against-crime' whose preoccupation with his wife's alleged infidelity makes it hard for him to keep his eye on the ball.

Chicago Sun-Times

A lot of the dialogue is intended as funny, but man, is it lame.

Hollywood Reporter

Definitely has its amusing moments, but ultimately all that improvised shtick gets mighty tired without any real break in the nonaction.

Los Angeles Times

There is enough ridiculous fun in the Tracy Morgan- Bruce Willis pairing as two of Brooklyn's "finest" to get many of you past the squirm-inducing stuff.

New York Times

It’s a phoned-in, gutless piece of hack work that reminds you of other, better films in the same vein.

Variety (USA)

There's precious little of that tension to be found between co-leads Bruce Willis and Tracy Morgan, but more than enough between director Kevin Smith and the shoddy script he's elected to take on, and neither seems willing to budge.

Cop Out works better as an occasionally amusing cop thriller than it does as an out-and-out comedy. As such, it's relentlessly average and not as funny as it should have been but it's never less than watchable and Willis acquits himself nicely.
