The movie just doesn't work


Willis and Morgan were miscast. They had no chemistry and weren't right at all. I think Tracy Morgan is a funny guy, but like most funny comics, he's a horrible actor. 30 Rock is written specificly for his strength and weaknesses. He's not supposed to be a good actor on 30 Rock. But putting him in the real world, where Cop Out is set, he just comes off like a crazy person. Guillermo Diaz is playing the same role he played in Weeds. His character wasn't intimidating our interesting. So you had a buddy cop movie where the buddies didn't work well and you had a lame villain. The plot wasn't that strong, but if you would've had a good villain and two cops who could play off of each other, it would've made people overlook the weak plot. There was too much improv. I'd bet most of Tacy's stuff was improvised. I just think Kevin was screwed from the beginning. There was no way to make this movie good. I actually think it's better than The Other Guys, but both movies have the same problems.

Note 1: Stifler is a character, not an actor.

Note 2: I doubt that Hollywood care about an anonymous note.

Note 3: You supplied no fact to support your opinion, so I doubt than anyone would care about your opinion. It is like saying that you don't like ice cream. Who could care less about your taste of ice cream, or other? Can't you supply something about what leads you to that opinion?

Note 4: At least five movies directors/directions who got SWS in a first movie tried hard to get him in their next movie, which speaks in a much stronger way than an anonymous opinion, without support, could ever do.

Dad? Are you my daddy?

Note 6: Not only Hollywood don't care about those who have nothing more to argue than "your mom likes black dicks".


Who are you trying to convince? and of what exactly?

Can you explain, dad? Or it is just preferable for us if it stays cryptic? Or it is just that you like using bandwidth for no other reason?

I really wanted to like this movie since I generally am a fan of Kevin Smith. But wow! It was really bad!
