Description

Let's Be Cops is a 2014 American buddy cop comedy film directed by Luke Greenfield and written by Greenfield, Nicholas Thomas, and Damon Wayans Jr. The film stars Wayans Jr. and Jake Johnson as two friends who dress up as police officers for a costume party, but decide to continue their masquerade as real cops after being mistaken for actual law enforcement. However, their fun and games take a dangerous turn as they find themselves embroiled in a real criminal underworld.

Let's Be Cops was released by 20th Century Fox on August 13, 2014, and received mixed reviews from critics. Despite this, it was a commercial success, grossing over $138 million worldwide against a $17 million budget. The film was praised for its comedic performances and its handling of darker themes, but criticized for its plot and characterization.

The film's success led to talks of a potential sequel, but nothing has been officially announced as of 2021. However, the film's stars have expressed interest in returning for a follow-up, and Greenfield has stated that he has ideas for where a sequel could go. In the meantime, Let's Be Cops has gained a cult following among fans of the buddy cop genre, and has been noted as an example of the trend of R-rated comedies featuring unconventional heroes.

Released in 2012, Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Dog Days covers the events depicted in third and fourth books of Jeff Kinney: The Last Straw and Dog Days. The last one "realistic fiction" novel got more attention from Wallace Wolodarsky who wrote a screenplay for the movie, and this fact is noticeably reflected in the film's plot. The storyline begins with Greg Heffley and Rowley Jefferson are going to the country club for their summer vacations where due to the unfortunate sequence of developments both of them got into the troubles. Bleak outlook of spending the summer in vain efforts to make some money is rising at the horizon with more and more of clarity. That makes the movie very similar to previous two: Diary of a Wimpy Kid (2010) and Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules (2011) – the hopeless children are showcased as losers trying to do their best. Nevertheless, the play of the cast is outstanding as usual and while watching this sequel you distinctively understand why these seven actor and actress (Zachary Gordon, Karan Brar, Robert Capron, Laine MacNeil, Connor & Owen Fielding and Dalila Bela were nominated the Young Artist Award and some of them ( we mean Laine MacNeil) even won it. By the way, Zachary Gordon's career is moving quite fast, which is led him to the lead role in the 2012 movie Norm of the North, where he plays main protagonist, Norm.
