(2 out of 5 stars)

Cop Movies can be hit or miss.  For every 48 Hours there’s a SWAT.  Cop Out is somewhere in between.

Bruce Willis plays a parody of John McClane, Seann William Scott can’t seem to escape Stiffler no matter how hard he tries, and Tracy Morgan is basically Tracy Jordan from 30 Rock with a badge.

All of that is fine.  I love Bruce Willis, and Tracy Morgan is hilarious doing anything.  He has received “I Would Listen to Him Read the Phone Book” status.  I will also watch anything Stiffler… I mean Seann William Scott does.  I even watched that movie where he ran a DTC Jewel or something.

If I had a point, it would be this: The whole movie was excess.  Too many characters, too many plots, and the main baddie is a former minor league baseball player out for revenge because (of course) his brother gets killed by Bruce and Tracy… not exactly scary.

I liked the movie.  I liked it a lot, but I didn’t love it.  I’m not sure if I’ll buy it, and to be honest Bruce Willis needs to step up his game.

The original title was A Couple of Dicks… Only appropriate it gets a couple of stars, too.
