First off , Arquette as a heavy ? Are you serious ? Continually squinting his eyes , even when he's indoors .The script is utterly tedious and the awful voice over ( courtesy of Abeckaser and his badly fitted teeth ) . Think Saturday Night Live doing a comedic version of Tommy Di Vito ( Joe Pesci ) times X . It really is that bad . This is on a par with the equally awful " The Many Saints of Newark " . Archetypal stereotypes who , on several occasions you expect members of the cast to burst out laughing as it all appears to be a big joke on us ! " I don't like cops , especially dirty ones " . Take the dog out instead.
If you start it, finish it. Trust me. How else will you know it's the worst mob movie of all time if you didn't? The first sign that it's a satire is the lack of Sicilian actors in the film. Nothing in the movie has a lock of substance. There's no scene longer than a minute because I assume that no casted actor could hold character long enough to keep a shot. Every conflict is quickly ended with a lame bozo line that only a bozo could think of. Imagine a henchman in the mob wanting to write a movie, but couldn't spell, so he got his Greek and Jewish friends who have hard-ons for poorly written DC TV series to write a mob movie for him "based on real events." A travesty to everything put out before this movie - not just mob movies - but EVERY movie period. At least The Room was endearing. The Wishmaster? MASTERCLASS compared to this sad attempt to cast two D-list actors and a former WCW world champion in a movie they expected anyone to take seriously. Worst acting, writing, and lighting. Just so bad. Rust will put this to shame no matter how bad it is.
Cant really understand the 3.9 rating.. maybe its just because it only came out a minuet ago..but still wow.. with the garbage they put out these days im still suprised.. could it have been better, im sure, but i think its clear this wasnt block buster budget. The acting was accurate enough. I imagine most people haven't actually ever known any real life mob characters & despite only having movies to set their opinions by, think they know what its really like.. well im not saying this was the Godfather, but the acting wasnt too far off base, At All.. like i said in the description, its a movie about real life things that happened, & plays that way, like a solid docudrama/mob film about them.. i enjoyed it for what it was.
From the fake NYC locations to the bad acting, performances flat and lifeless, predictable plot, heavy-handed dialogue and directing, it is so riddled with heavy-handed stereotyping and terrible dialogue that it often comes across like a parody of the genre.... But the over-the-top treatment doesn't appear to be intentionally funny; it's just absurdly serious. This is an ultra-low-budget mob movie that missed the mark at every turn. As a fan of mob movies, I really wanted to like this film. I have seen freshman student films better than this. It's based on a true story about the mafia Cops but they never captured the essence of the characters. I got a refund from my on-demand cable provider.
Somehow I just didn't buy almost anything in Mob Cops, from the characters to the plot. And I love me a good mob movie, they're my favs in general. It's not surprising that movies high up in the charts are often not actually great, but still disappointing when it happens. I like David Arquette sometimes, but his choices in movies sometimes leave a lot to be desired, like in this case. A lot of the dialog felt amateur to me, too obvious and "easy", if that makes sense.. A lot of the cuts were fast, which isn't always a bad thing, but in this case contributed to it feeling forced and disconnected since the story and acting weren't at the level. It was mildly entertaining for a late night, I suppose, but I can't really recommend it.
