Cop Out is a 2010 American
buddy cop comedy film directed and edited by
Kevin Smith, written by
Mark and
Robb Cullen, and starring
Bruce Willis,
Tracy Morgan,
Kevin Pollak and
Seann William Scott. The plot revolves around two veteran
NYPD partners (portrayed by Willis and Morgan) on the trail of a stolen, rare, mint-condition baseball card who find themselves up against a relentless, memorabilia-obsessed bloodthirsty gangster. This is the first film that Smith directed that he did not also write. Upon its release, the film was met with negative reviews by critics and underperformed at the box office.
