For the first time in his career Kevin Smith directs other peoples script, as he's taking on the Cullen brothers work with Cop Out. I've never hidden the fact I'm a huge fan of Smith at his best. he writes good dialogue, his movies is usual fun and very easily enjoyable and he's not full of him self.
Sadly there's little Smith in the script presented by Bruce Willis and Tracy Morgan in the leading roles. It's not well balanced, it's not funny (not in a juvenile Kevin Smith-way even), it's cliched and worst of all it's just to filled with Seann William Scott. Besides Scott there's actually several nice supporting actors and actresses, and they help bring it to life enough to not be a complete pile of garbage. Willis doesn't impress in a light Willis-part, but Morgan is doing a lot worse. I rather keep looking forward to the next Smith movie where he writes the script as well as directs.
