Best cop movies

[OddEnormous]

I love cop movies. I want to dress like detectives in cop movies.

That chain with the badge is so FUCKING cool.

Touching evidence with pens.

Walking up to the scene and going straight though police tape no questions asked.

Hats

leather jackets

smashing assholes on the table in "the box"



List your favorites.

I'll start with a few:

Training Day
Seven
Donnie Brasco

Watching "Narc" right now.

What are your favorites?

Police Academy :smug:

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

The Departed!

Chinatown, even though it's not about a cop but a private detective, still very awesome.

 

[Run BJM]

Seven
Super Troopers
Rush Hour/Rush Hour 2
Heat
Beverly Hills Cop
Blue Streak
The Departed (if it counts)
Superbad (if it counts)

[OddEnormous]

The Departed!

Love that flick!

It's one of the very few films that no matter what, if I run across it on cable I watch until the end.

[OddEnormous]

I forgot "dogs" in my list of cop awesome.

 

[BoBoBREWSKI]

Die Hard

Yippee-ki-yay, motherfucker!

 

[maxiep]

Here's my rule: It's not a cop movie without Steve Guttenberg,

 

[Colonel Ronan]

Hot Fuzz and Super Troopers!

 

[ABM]

I'm surprised nobody had mentioned L.A. Confidential. That one was way awesome.

 

[Wheels]

When I was younger and we had Cinemax or something.. my favorite movie ended up being "Busty Cops" lol

 

[ABM]

Here's a nice list..........

Se7en
City By The Sea
Insomnia
The French Connection
Narc

 

[OddEnormous]

I'm surprised nobody had mentioned L.A. Confidential. That one was way awesome.

Easily in my top 5.

I wonder if we should count FBI films... Like Silence of the lambs etc.

Maybe not. Just becomes to vast then.

I like the whole plain clothes divorced shitty apartment tortured detective thing.

It's too bad The Wire was a TV show and not a film.

 

[OddEnormous]

Here's a nice list..........

City By The Sea
Insomnia
The French Connection

Nice. I'll have to check these out. Have not seen.

 

[maxiep]

If you're going to watch "Insomnia", watch the original with Stellan Skarsgaard, not the remake with Pacino.

 

[Sedatedfork]

Not a cop movie -- but I enjoy watching First 48. I find the investigation and breaking down bad guys during interrogation very interesting. I get bummed when they can't solve the case.

 

[PtldPlatypus]

Three words: Tango. And. Cash.

You're welcome.

"Why is yours so much bigger than mine?"

"Genetics."

Classic.

 

[THE HCP]

Cop Land is a great movie!

[Rodolfo]

The French Connection/II

 

[BlazersBlood]

The Wire is killer. Not a movie, but if you have the time to watch the series, it's a masterpiece.

 

[OddEnormous]

If you're going to watch "Insomnia", watch the original with Stellan Skarsgaard, not the remake with Pacino.

Will do. Ta!

Just thought of another good 'un.

48 hours
