I’m all for R-rated comedies, especially buddy cop comedies, but Let’s Be Cops looks kind of weird. And I don’t mean that in a flattering way or an exciting way, but weird in the sense that it stars Jake Johnson and Damon Wayans Jr. and not a single joke really lands harder than a soft chuckle.
This 21 Jump Street reversal-looking film has me scratching my head trying to figure out who the audience is for this one exactly. I’m sure I’ll find it amusing enough, but a late summer comedy usually has either star power or strong marketing and this one doesn’t look like it has either.
Thoughts anyone?
