Let's Be Cops (2014)
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.

Fantastic!
It's funny watching the elements come together in this complicated scam. On one hand, the set-up isn't quite as complex as it seems, but there's an easy sense of fun in every exchange.
The story-telling is good with flashbacks.The film is both funny and heartbreaking. You smile in a scene and get a soulcrushing revelation in the next.
A good comedy movie, mixed with adventure. Can't say bad.
Two losers attend a masquerade party and thinking it's a costume party, dress up as police officers. This gives them the impetus to act and be like police. From e-bay, they purchase a police car only to meet up with the gang that had damaged their fender earlier.These gang members represent much more of a threat than first determined. They have been shaking down businesses to take them over so that they can launder money through them.There is romance and disagreement between our two friends along the way; they even fool real cops into thinking they're the real deal and soon team up to get the goods on this awful gang.Light fanfare and at least the police are depicted in a positive way.
Absolutely hilarious. The movie is about two friends dressing up as cops for what they think is a costume party and just go around the city pretending to be cops and goofing off. The movie is more funny than you'd except coming from a couple of no-named actors. But the last third of the film does go off the rails a little when it suddenly turns from a light hearted comedy into a serious red blooded police movie. But it doesn't hurt the film bad enough for me to not recommend it to anyone looking for a funny movie to laugh at for an hour and a half. It is well directed and well written. Both lead actors seem very talented and I think we will be seeing a lot more from them thanks to this film.
This long, long (yes even at 100 or so minutes) is just awful.PLOT: Two bumbling idiots decide to impersonate cops. Faux hi jinks follow. You are very thankful though when the movie is over, even tho it seems as tho it goes on forever, way past its premise.Nothing to see here so just move along, folks.The 'buddy' cops fail to deliver and those two had about as much chemistry as salt peter and zinc.Horrible plot, poor acting, no sympathy for such bone head characters, and their stupidity and bumbling is so frustrating, you better have ff engaged at all times. Totally stupid situations they encounter. All make mowing the lawn a much better more exciting alternative.Or better if as in Star Trek you had 'warp speed' you could get through this mish mash much faster.Was this movie scripted on a napkin at Spaggios? It looked like they winged it.Too bad, because I think Waylans is funny and loved all of the SCARY MOVIES.
