Review of Cop Out

Cop Out (2010)
3/10
Simply . . . vile
28 February 2010
Look, guys, it's not a "hom-ij" (yeah, I know you know how to pronounce it correctly) if you steal the lines, but not the emotional content, of the "buddy cop" movies you rip off. This is an extremely offensive, unfunny (in fact, anti-funny), unnecessarily violent lift from a breed of 80's movies that are better left to cable reruns. Bruce Willis is clearly going through the motions, and Tracy Morgan is totally out of his element (whatever that is) playing someone with a responsible job and a stable relationship, since he's a cartoon character. And just when I thought that Seann William Scott couldn't expand his annoying jerk persona, he does. Truly terrible, derivative, lacking in any redeeming value, utter dreck- and yet, it'll likely be a hit, and spawn even more awful sequels.
