Cops and Robbers

Maybe I should have taken heed of the relative low rating that the 2017 action thriller "Cops and Robbers" had snagged here on IMDb before I sat down to watch it. But I figured an action movie with Michael Jai White and Tom Berenger couldn't be all that bad.

But it was. Boy, was this movie from writer and director Scott Windhauser a swing and a miss.

Not only was the storyline generic and predictable, but it also felt incredibly clumsy and amateurish. I mean, some of the actors and actresses didn't even seem to believe in the project, and it was showing in their performances on the screen. The whole movie permeated with a very low budget feel, and it wasn't working in favor of the movie as a whole.

The character gallery in Scott Windhauser's "Cops and Robbers" was for the lack of better works far from interesting. I didn't care one bit about the characters in the movie as they milled about stumbling to and from.

As for the effects in the movie, well again we are well within the amateur range here; especially the weapons and when said weapons were fired. That was just laughably bad.

This is definitely not a movie that I will be returning to a second time. Nor is it a movie that I would recommend you waste your time, money and effort on.

My rating of "Cops and Robbers" lands on a three out of ten stars.

Don't even bother watching. Tom Berenger should be massively embarrassed that he was even in this farce, Michael Jai White makes Andy Dick seem like a Thespian.

One of the worst boring Movies allover the time very dull and boring with a very meaningless story or a purpose actually its like you will ask yourself why they made this move ???!!! no action , no suspense , no story , nothing this movie really sucks

Is it worth the slog here to get to the film's surprises? I would say no. During most of the movie, I was thinking they should have sent the cast back to acting school before they filmed this and edited the script so that it wasn't laughably bad.

The twists that do come later, which I won't reveal, can be clever and I didn't guess them but also can be somewhat confusing, at least to me. All in all, I would say save yourself the time--it's not worth it.

Well, when I saw Jai White's name in this, I was almost immediately interested on seeing the movie... But, unfortunately, the movie is bad, very bad. The dialog seems forced, the sound editing is poorly made, and the fighting choreography is dreadful. They seem so amateurish, so clumsy. Too bad... The movie is very very boring
