80's action in pure form. This is in the die hard mold, but less structure or bad guys. I must say before hand that James Woods is my favorite actor. He is amazing. IN this film he delivers the best 1... Full review

This film is one of those rare treats that you see on a TV channel from time to time. The plot is a standard and unsurprising affair but what sets it apart is James Woods' sardonic, cynical and hilarious portrayal of... Full review

There are times that this feels like a TV Movie. In fact, if it were not for the presence of James Woods that is all this would be, a good TV movie. As it is, Woods acts his socks off without... Full review

Which is why I rented it. An OK movie about a cop who "goes outside the rules" to track what he suspects is a serial killer. Like other reviewers, I laughed at stuff that was probably not supposed to be amusing... Full review

James Woods hams it up beautifully as the "cop" with a REAL bad attitude, and Charles Durning adds a nice touch as his police buddy. Over the top, overacted and hard to believe, but pretty damn fun to watch, with one... Full review

His investigation leads him to the bookstore of a writer of feminist poetry (Lesley Ann Warren) who has for some time been receiving gifts of poems and flowers from an unknown admirer.
Cop is completely absorbing because of Woods' chillingly effective performance.

As a result, Cop comes off as woefully disjointed, where nothing really builds from moment to moment.
Cop begins well enough.
Instead of coming full-circle as a probing character piece, though, Cop fails to deliver on its potential.

Chicago Sun-Times
Cop " is a violent movie, all the more so because it is so casual about the violence.
He uses his personality, his voice and his quirky sense of humor to undermine the material and comment on it, until " Cop " becomes an essay on this whole genre of movie.
