Os Bad Boas

From the very first scene, *Almost Cops* sets the tone with laugh-out-loud moments, offbeat charm, and a duo you can't help but root for. This buddy comedy captures what happens when two well-meaning slackers end up impersonating police officers-and somehow find themselves stumbling into real crime-fighting.

💥 The chemistry between the leads is magnetic. Their timing, banter, and chaotic improvisation turn every scene into comic gold. Whether they're trying to talk their way out of a traffic stop or accidentally solving a case, you're in for a wild, unpredictable ride.

The film cleverly mixes physical comedy with satire, poking fun at authority while celebrating friendship, loyalty, and accidental heroism. It's fast-paced, never dull, and packed with moments you'll quote later.

🎯 Bottom line: *Almost Cops* doesn't just entertain-it surprises. If you're in the mood for a carefree watch that leaves your face sore from smiling.

I went into *Almost Cops* expecting a dumb comedy with some cheap laughs-but I wasn't prepared for just how painfully bad this movie actually is. It's not just unfunny-it's aggressively annoying. The plot makes no sense, the jokes fall flat every time, and the acting feels like a school play gone off the rails.

The characters are caricatures with no depth, the pacing is a mess, and there are moments that feel like they were improvised by people who have never told a joke in their lives. It tries so hard to be edgy or "random" that it ends up being nothing but cringe. I kept waiting for it to get better. It never did.

By the end, I was just angry I wasted my time. There are bad movies-and then there's *Almost Cops*. Easily the worst movie I've ever seen. I wouldn't even recommend it as a "so bad" it's good" watch. It's just bad. 1 star, and that's being generous.

While I had indeed never heard about this 2025 Dutch action comedy titled "Bad Boa's" (aka "Almost Cops"), of course I opted to watch it. All movies deserve a fair chance in my opinion.

Writers Kenneth Asporaat, Michel Bonset, Murth Mossel, Joost Reijmers, Paul de Vrijer and Thomas van der Ree put together an okay enough script. I mean, it was a watchable enough movie with some good laughs here and there. But ultimately it just wasn't an outstanding or memorable action comedy.

Given my very, very limited exposure to Dutch cinema, then I wasn't familiar with a single actor or actress on the cast list, which was something that worked in favor of the movie. Yeah, I do enjoy watching new and unfamiliar talents and faces on the screen when I watch a movie.

"Bad Boa's" was a fair enough movie, but director Gonzalo Fernandez Carmona just didn't deliver anything outstanding.

My rating of "Bad Boa's" lands on a generic five out of ten stars.

I'm not exactly sure what made me enjoy this film, but it had a fun and easy vibe that just worked for me. The plot isn't very original or deep, but it moves along smoothly and keeps you watching. The comedy is light, not over-the-top, and the characters, while not super memorable, have decent chemistry. It's the kind of movie you watch when you don't feel like thinking too hard-just relax and enjoy. Nothing groundbreaking, but definitely entertaining enough for a casual night. I had a good time watching it, and even if I won't rewatch it soon, I don't regret it at all. It's simple, silly, and sometimes that's all you really need.

I think as a debut gonzalo has done a good job with directing this film. It contains some good talents and its always nice to get another one of those buddy cop type movies even if they are predictable in some ways. Jack and ramone are community cops. But after the death of ramons brother, jack joins his squad so they can go and take down the people responsible. It has a bit of a kevin heart and the rock feel as the two main characters have the same type of energy has them. But this is better. It had its fun parts and a few that really did make me laugh. Overall not a bad edition to the buddy cop series.
