Let's Be Cops Trailers

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.

Reviews
LouHomey From my favorite movies..
2freensel I saw this movie before reading any reviews, and I thought it was very funny. I was very surprised to see the overwhelmingly negative reviews this film received from critics.
Siflutter It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
Stephanie There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
carlos_a-728-701934 I can't believe all the ratings above 1 or 2 stars, I saw this movie not expecting anything and still found it so boring and stupid, what part is funny ???? The only part I liked was Nina Dobrev on shorts, she looks pretty hot, but outside of that this is a total waste of time, not funny at all.
Juliet Roar I'm not going to lie, the idea of having men pretend to be cops is not hilarious or genius, however the story, the actors and characters completely made it worth it. There was not a minute where I was not laughing. Completely kept me entertained and would watch it many many times.
edwagreen 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.
Prismark10 Jake Johnson and Damon Wayans Jr play two losers who get fake LAPD cop uniforms for a fancy dress party and later get mistaken for real cops. They then continue to pretend to be real cops by learning police procedures via YouTube and buying police equipment on ebay. They hope to benefit from the perks of being real cops.Wayans an unsuccessful video game designer of a Grand Theft Auto variety but focusing on cops figures that the experience might help him with his game design.However they then get entangled with some Albanian crime gang and also crooked cops while all the time keep up the pretence.Johnson and Wayans make a good team but this is an unfunny script and a routine plot. There are a few chuckles but the film overstretched a one note joke.
