A Hilarious Romp in the Most Cringe-Inducing Way
I
don't know what I was expecting from Cop Car, but definitely not 90
minutes of near constant laughter. The movie with the simple premise of
two ten(ish) year old boys find and steal an abandon cop car escalates
and derails into car chases, drugs and shoot outs.
Kevin
Bacon is amazing as the crooked sheriff with a secret in his trunk,
but the two leads James Freedson-Jackson and Hays Wellford steal the
show as innocent runaways who find themselves in the most adult
situation imaginable.
The dialogue of
innocence from the boys was perfectly crafted and delivered. The movie
doesn't have much of a plot and as disappointed people behind me pointed
out, not much exposition or backstory, but that's what I enjoyed the
most from this film. The movie is centred on the boys instead of another
film about crooked cops who will do anything to not get caught.
I
recommend this film for any with a dark sense of humour or enjoy a bit
of cringing as there are multiple scenes where the kids test out the
guns and bullet proof vest. Maybe not suited for the woman behind me who
openly stated she doesn't like 'dark films' before the movie. It took
everything in me not to turn around and stare while the kids threw the
gun about haha.
