Let's Be Cops

This review may contain spoilers!

This film is garbled sitcom level comedy that demeans real police work; while attempting to apologise for that with it's ending. I would give Let's Be Cops a 4.5/10.

Let's Be Cops had some decent pacing, the movie didn't drag itself out too long and it was finished in an acceptable time. I also thought that the ending had a strong message about responsibility.

Damon Wayans Jr, who played Justin, was one of the few good leads within this film; his comedy was perfect but he also had a very engaging character as well. James D'Arcy and Andy Garcia, who played Mossi and Brolin respectively, were brilliant in their serious criminal roles; it was only the lack of comedy that these two provided that made their talent not seem to fit the film itself.

Rob Riggle, who played Segars, did a great job as an actual police officer in this film; he really displayed a show of talent that wasn't just comedic and that was something we don't really get a lot from him. He was absolutely the easiest pick for best performance and really stood out for me.

Let's be Cops had some trashy special effects and music; this really was something that had no worth as a film. The storyline was atrocious and kind of insulting; I also thought the comedy was crude and added literally nothing to the film as a whole.

Jake Johnson, who played Ryan, was a terrible actor in a leading role; he was melodramtic and showed no sign of actual talent or humour. Nina Dobrev, who played Josie, was a horrible attempt at trying to create a love interest for one of the male characters. Keegan-Michael Key, who played Pupa, was just an drastically unnecessary character; he really lacked comedic talent which was a shame cause he does some amazing stuff in Key and Peele.
