"Whats a dickey - doo?"
This could quite possibly be the best buddy cop movie comedy. Bruce Willis (Jimmy) and Tracy Morgan (Paul) play police detectives on the hunt for Jimmy's missing baseball card he was going to use to pay for his daughters wedding. The card gets stolen during a robbery by Dave (Sean William Scott), who sold the card to a drug lord named Poh Boy. Poh Boy is a baseball fanatic and tells Jimmy and Paul they can have the card back if they find Poh Boys missing Mercedes with a very "valuable" item inside. The two agree and the fun begins. Director Kevin Smith pulls no punches here in this laugh til you cry comedy. Willis and Morgan are great together and with an all star cast including Kevin Pollack, Adam Brody, and Jason Lee this film just won me over. From the car thieving cussing kid, to Morgan thinking his wife is cheating on him and recruiting a teddy bear to do the dirty work, and Willis and Lee's bitter rivalry. Cop Out is a fun, fun , fun movie. As comedies for adults go they don't get much better. 4/5 -tom
