Let's Be Cops
Best pals Ryan and Justin are stalled in their respective careers -- a fact that is painfully driven home when they go to a college reunion. Dressed as police in the mistaken belief that they were to attend a costume party, Ryan and Justin find that the uniforms earn them much respect and attention. Although Justin is uncomfortable with the idea, Ryan decides to continue with the charade, putting them both in increasingly dangerous situations. When these newly-minted “heroes” get tangled in a real life web of mobsters and dirty detectives, they must put their fake badges on the line.
Critics Sentiment
Ryan and Justin kick Albanian gang from Georgie's restaurant
Justin and Ryan argue about danger and part ways
The film drops significantly from its comedy peak around the Albanian gang confrontation to its lowest point during the formulaic friendship conflict.
Let's Be Cops starts with a promising and genuinely funny premise that peaks during the early fake cop antics, but gradually loses steam as it shifts from comedy to crime drama. While some reviewers appreciated the action elements and found moments of entertainment throughout, the consensus was that the film squandered its strong setup with increasingly formulaic plotting.
