Info

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.

Cop Out Audience Reviews

SoTrumpBelieve Must See Movie...
Acensbart Excellent but underrated film
Donald Seymour This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
samvelgasparyan It's dumb, feel good cop movie with bunch of funny characters. I just don't get this people who give low rating to best funny movies. You people just ask wayyy too much from this movies.
hall895 Cop Out is not a Kevin Smith movie. Meaning he did not write it. He was just hired to direct this movie, somebody else's movie. Bad idea. This movie desperately needed the wit of a Kevin Smith script. It could have used some of the outrageous moments Smith is known for as well. This script is safe, tame and ultimately boring. It's a movie about mismatched buddy cops which doesn't stand out at all from all those other movies about mismatched buddy cops. Anybody could have directed this thing. Smith probably wishes he hadn't.Jimmy and Paul are our two cops, played by Bruce Willis and Tracy Morgan respectively. Willis totally mails it in. He's playing the straight guy but he plays it so straight he's bordering on comatose. And Morgan, perhaps overcompensating for the lifeless Willis, loudly mugs his way through the whole thing. At least Morgan is trying which is more than you can say for Willis. Unfortunately the material is so bad there's not much for anybody to work with. Jokes fall flat, gags are lame, there's barely a laugh to be had in this supposed comedy. Supporting characters add no support, the only performer aside from Willis and Morgan who is notable at all is Seann William Scott. Sadly he is only notable for how incredibly annoying his character is. Then there's the main villain, a drug dealer with a baseball memorabilia obsession, who comes across as more clownish than menacing. The plot, such as it is, is not particularly interesting, centering on Jimmy's attempts to retrieve a stolen baseball card from the aforementioned clownish bad guy. The action sequences? Well, let's just say that Smith is not much of an action director. Dialogue is his strong suit. Well at least it is in his own movies. This is not his movie. Nobody would want to take credit for this one.
Sandcooler 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.
Maniac-9 Just a truly terrible and awful buddy cop movie, well lets be honest just a bad movie period. Has there ever been a less convincing actor(and I use the term "actor" loosely) then Tracy Morgan? He's good on 30 Rock because he's not acting and just playing an exaggerated version of his real personality. But he's completely incapable of playing a role that's not himself.I can't believe that Bruce Willis wasted his time by signing on to star in this movie.I collected baseball cards as a kid and still have a bunch of them but by no means do I want them to play a major role in any plot line for a movie involving cops tracking down a bunch of bad guys.I think that with this movie and Jersey Girl that I've pretty much given up on all hope for Kevin Smith ever turning into a good seasoned filmmaker.
