Movie of the Week


Let’s Be Cops
On its surface, there’s nothing particularly promising about this faux-cop comedy. But with Jake Johnson and Damon Wayans, Jr. in the leads, there’s every reason to believe they’ll be able to spin gold out of this crap.

So maybe it’s a little dated, and its Thing Which Must Not Be Said isn’t shocking in 2014. But this is still a powerful little drama, featuring great performances from James Garner, Audrey Hepburn and Shirley MacLaine.
