You know the movie that was supposed to be called "A Couple of
Dicks" .. well it's now called 'Cop Out' and the red-band trailer
has just been released. Didn't laugh once during the first trailer
but this one is slightly better. Slightly. I'll most likely check
it out anyways. Watch it below!
Two longtime NYPD partners on the trail of a stolen, rare,
mint-condition baseball card find themselves up against a
merciless, memorabilia-obsessed gangster. Jimmy (Bruce Willis) is
the veteran detective whose missing collectible is his only hope to
pay for his daughter’s upcoming wedding, and Paul (Tracy Morgan) is
his “partner-against-crime” whose preoccupation with his wife’s
alleged infidelity makes it hard for him to keep his eye on the
ball.
The film stars Bruce Willis, Tracy Morgan, Seann William Scott,
Adam Brody, Jason Lee, and Michelle Trachtenberg. Pretty decent
cast but they didn't really bring the laughs in either of the
trailers. It was directed by Kevin Smith (Clerks, Jay and Slient
Bob) and written by the Cullen brothers. No not those Cullen
brothers. This is interesting because Kevin Smith usually writes
and directs his own films. Cop Out opens later this month on the
29th.
