Let's Be Cops

Plot: 2 friends are stuck in the pursuit of their dreams, so they decide to dress like cops.

This movie has a very simple plot: Act Like Cops. This can be done well: as seen in Ted and A Million Ways To Die In The West. Here: it provides for a very formula driven movie. This movie was low budget. Why? Because the plot has so many cliches. You know exactly where each action will be taken to advance the movie. In a film like this: You need steady laughs to compensate for your generic ideas. This has attempts of laughter given by the two best components of the movie: The 2 leads: Jake Johnson and Damon Wayons Jr.. They try to make us laugh time after time, but the script gives them a bland formula, with no freedom to create something awesome.


How I define this film is a generic run of the mill dime a dozen comedy. There is nothing unique about this idea given to us in this movie.

This is the 2nd time back-to-back that I have felt this way.

Expendables 3: (Generic- Average)
Let's Be Cops:  ( Generic and Bland)

This movie is watchable, it just doesn't have any stand out moments that are unique.



Grade:

C
