Movie Review – Copshop

copshop_header

I can’t say I had any valid expectations going into the movie because all I knew of it was what I saw on the poster. I knew Gerald Butler was in it. He’s a mixed bag. I really like the actor and most of the movies he’s in, but he’s also been in a few stinkers, like GeoStorm. All I know about Frank Grillo is that he was a member of Hydra in the MCU, and he plays the American bad guy in a bunch of Chinese movies.

The movie begins in the middle of the action. It takes some time to sort out what’s going on and who’s who. I felt an ongoing sense of anticipation and wondered if the movie was going to end up being garbage or decent until about the midpoint of the movie. Somewhat surprisingly, it turned out pretty decent.

Almost the entire story takes place in the police office. It’s very constrained and isolated. By the end of the movie, there’s a very obvious Quentin Tarantino vibe. There was one other person in the theater with me and after the movie ended I asked him if he felt the same vibe and he agreed. Joe Carnahan, the director, must be a Tarantino fan. He also directed The A-Team and Boss Level—which I haven’t seen yet but have heard good things about.

A grade of B- isn’t bad at all. I felt the movie was good, but there was room for improvement. For one thing, the dialog was decent, but not great. It felt like they were trying too hard sometimes. But sometimes they nailed it. If there could have just elevated the dialog a little bit, the movie would be much better. Again, this is what I would imagine as the first draft of a Tarantino script, which is probably still better than most scripts.

My biggest disappointment in the movie is with the plot and who’s ultimately behind it all. It fell flat there because there was no relationship build-up, but I don’t want to give anything away. You’ll see for yourself.

Movie Watching Must Have!!

I go feral for this app. I love it so much and I wish everyone knew about it and used it. It is incredibly useful and I would be devastated if this app ever disappeared. Things I love: 1) the pee times! It’s so handy to know the best time to go and then read the synopsis of what’s happening while I’m gone. I never have to worry about missing the good bits! 2) knowing if there is a post-credits scene or not. This might be my fav feature because I would have missed out on some pretty critical scenes if it weren’t for RunPee. 3) the movie review and viewer rankings. This info has made me watch some movies that I normally wouldn’t and it’s nice seeing things outside of my usual scope. 4) that it’s a small family run business. I love shopping small and it really does feel like I’m part of the RunPee family! If you reach out to them, Dan will personally respond to you and he is so warm and helpful. GET THIS APP AND THEN SUBSCRIBE! It is absolutely worth it and you’ll be using it again and again!

Ultimately, if you’re a fan of Tarantino then you’ll probably enjoy this movie more than you might expect. But now that I’ve told you that, you’ll probably like the movie exactly as much as you expect. 🙂

But jail can’t protect Murretto for long. Viddick schemes his own way into detention, biding his time in a nearby cell until he can complete his mission. When the arrival of a competing assassin (Toby Huss) ignites all-out mayhem, mounting threats force Viddick to get creative if he wants to finish the job and escape the explosive situation.

  1. Frank Grillo is the star of Boss Level, which eventually you’ll see, bc it’s great. Wonderful timing and comedy, and a solid contribution to the Groundhog Day genre.

    And now this web you wrote about is even tighter. 🙂

    And Grillo is really great in it! He plays it very like Hugh Jackman, and not even a low rent version. How was he in Cop Shop? Does he have chemistry with Butler? I hope his career goes well.
