Let’s Be Cops (Blu-ray Review)

January 3, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Starring: Jake Johnson, Damon Wayans Jr., Rob Riggle, James D'Arcy
Director: Luke Greenfield
Running Time: 104 mins
Certificate: 15
Release Date: December 26th 2014

God bless Jake Johnson and Damon Wayans Jr. They’re both very talented comic actors who struggle valiantly in Let’s Be Cops to make it work, but thanks to a script that’s far too dumb and clunky it’s all to little avail.

Ryan (Johnson) and Justin (Wayans) are friends who’ve reached their 30s and are struggling with the fact that neither of them are even close to living their dreams. When they’re invited to a reunion ‘costume party’ (which turns out to be a masquerade ball), they decide to go as cops. While the reunion is a disaster, they can’t help but notice the effect their police uniforms have on those they pass on the streets. [Read more…]

Let’s Be Cops Red Band Trailer – Damon Wayans Jr. & Jake Johnson impersonate the police

March 25, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


Last time I looked, impersonating a police officer was a crime, but it’s also got a fair amount of potential for comedy.

That’s the premise behind Let’s Be Cops, starring Damon Wayans Jr. and Jake Johnson, which has just released its first red band trailer.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘It’s the ultimate buddy cop movie except for one thing: they’re not cops. When two struggling pals dress as police officers for a costume party, they become neighborhood sensations. But when these newly-minted “heroes” get tangled in a real life web of mobsters and dirty detectives, they must put their fake badges on the line.’

James D’Arcy, Andy Garcia, Rob Riggle and Nina Dobrev also star.

It’ll be in cinemas this summer.

James D’Arcy Set To Get Villainous In Let’s Be Cops

May 2, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

james-darcyBrit actor James D’Arcy’s Stateside exposure has certainly been helped in the last few months by Cloud Atlas, and Hitchcock. It’s helped him score a role in a slightly more mainstream project, Let’s Be Cops, according to Variety.

The movie is about two best friends – Damon Wayans Jr. and Jake Johnson – who are looking for a little more out of life. They impersonate cops for kicks, but when they unknowingly mess with a real mobster, the game gets real.

D’Arcy will play the bad guy that Johnson and Wayans’ characters cross. Vampire Diaries’ star Nina Dobrev has also recently signed up to play Johnson’s love interest.

There’s no news on when the film might shoot.
