A Great Caucasionsploitation
Have you ever typed White Cop into a search engine? Not the best news articles come up, but when you search for the White Cop movie, you will see something much less racist. This Caucasionsploitation film is a throw back to the classic movies where the cop is also a vampire, or also a samurai, or also a maniac, or also a kindergarten teacher. In this film, they raise the holy cow "and also" theme by making the cop also be a white guy! The acting choices are top notch by using the affectionate Ben Kobold, the California Christian Science public access star David Liebe Hart (because of course he is!) and various background characters who reoccur in various scenes. This is perfectly placed when one of the background characters reveals she is a main character, but she's in different clothes and a different scene causing Officer Kip White to question if he actually knows her character yet. Either that, or Kip is so upset over the loss of his best friend JJ that he doesn't pay attention to anyone outside the investigation. Our good city Chicago also plays a nice role in this flick by using memorable locations that told them they were allowed to film there. Places like Margie's Ice Cream, Hungry Brain Bar, and that Sybaris hotel you used to see in commercials as a kid. You know which one I mean, the one with the couple in the hot tub? All helps when you have a character that is about as gritty as an evening in Lake View. This movie is worthy of its own Ghana movie poster.
Bad indie spoof
I caught this dud on Amazon Prime under the title BAD ATTITUDE. It's a really poor indie spoof of the crime thriller genre, in which a nerdy cop goes gunning for revenge against a gang of drug-dealing goons and must bring each and everyone of them to book. I'm really not a fan of supposed 'spoofs' such as this one, because they're just pitifully bad, and the director will always say that it's meant to be bad, it's meant to be tongue-in-cheek. I don't buy it; films like this are just amateurish, with embarrassingly bad acting and dumb lines for the actors to say.
Hilarious!
In an age where movies are recasting traditional heroes and making them different ethnicities and genders one movie has the courage to go in the complete opposite direction. WHITE COP! You know those movies with the really cool suave black cop (Beverly Hills Cop, Shaft) or those buddy cop films where one is calm and collected and the other is a wild card (Lethal Weapon) Well forget those. This movie is basically if the nerdy cop Cecil from Robocop was the hero. White Cop is really funny homage to B-movie cop flicks and also a parody to films like Beverly Hills Cop. The main character is nerdy, cowardly, scrawny, and totally not up for the job. The best scene is early on when he blows his "special friend J.J.'s" cover. White cop is really clever when it comes to its role reversals such as the "european drug cartel" and I think the psychiatrist is probably my favorite character. Usually the psychiatrist is sympathetic or falls in love with the damaged cop...this one act appropriately and demands he get kicked off the force. You really can't go wrong with this one. See it ASAP!
Get ready to get weird...
This movie is not what you think it is. With a name like White Cop, the mind of the uninitiated can jump to some very heavy conclusions. This film, however, is about as heavy as a blue whale on Mercury; that is, its about a third as heavy as you would think. As Meyers himself said of the film before the premier, "Get ready to feel really weird about white people, masculinity, and the law." In a cinematic landscape dominated by hyper masculine, hyper violent, and hyper sexual renditions of the men of law enforcement, White Cop slams on the brakes and grinds the gears into reverse, flipping these filmic tropes with a result that is painfully hilarious and endearingly awkward. White Cop sits comfortably within, and yet transcends, the genre of campy B-list cop movies. The blatant self awareness of the genera from which it stems, and the films constant hyper simplification and stylization, allows White Cop to hold up a mirror to late 20th century action cinema, albeit a fun house mirror, that throws back a reflection that is both easier and harder to stomach than the genera films to which it pays awkward homage. This film is ludicrous, chunky, and homegrown, incorporating actors across the spectrum of competence, with the result that every scene is an unpredictable escapade of satirical caricatures, affected fisticuffs, and strange accents. Moreover, having been filmed primarily in Chicago, and drawing heavily upon the less cinematically featured aspects of Windy City, White Cop gives you Chicago from the inside out, no Navy Pier but lots of CPD. So if you're into this kind of thing, and you're looking for something to watch with the kids (White Cop features NO PROFANITY, holy sh*t!), see if you can track down a copy of White Cop, it will be well worth your time.
Seeing this movie was one of the most enjoyable experiences i've had in a long time. Not just another night at the movies.
When I was a kid I rented Clerks on a whim from Blockbuster Video because I liked the cover and had read some tiny, tiny blurb about it in some magazine. I immediately fell in love with it , dissected it, studied it and it was one of the things that pushed me into pursuing a career in comedy writing. If i'd seen White Cop when I was a kid it would have had the same effect. I would have made all my friends watch it a hundred times over and I would memorize every line. This movie gets the right push and it will be a Cult Classic. If you are lucky enough to hear about it, go seek it out and watch it! Also, Ben Kobold does an incredible job as Kip White. You will have to watch it over and over just to catch all his hilarious dialogue.
