    Don't take it too seriously

    Yes, silly and ridiculous storylines and plot holes abound.

    Nonetheless, Slater is charming and it is a fun watch.

    Just don't take it too seriously.

    Pure entertainment...lots of one liners, a must see!

    Why, Why, and why...I dont understand why so many people bash this film. This film is great and will be always great in my mind and many will agree with me. I like how they bring slaters character, in focus with the camera, you didnt see that too much back then, you see it now a days like on, Malcom in the middle on FOX as an example. This movie is one of my favorites, I am very suprised as why many people didnt care for you it but I cam to a conclusion that they probably had their eyes closed and were deaf. This movie has the most funny one liners, and humor I have ever seen. Like when slater buys the turkey for his brother and then the truck ran it over. Another great part was when he was in the car with Ted (another cop), and he started swearing, and then slater said, "you have an unlimited vocabulary Ted", and then Ted says the F- word back to him. Watch this movie and then thank me later. ***/ out of/ ****. A must see

    From The Days of the Miners and Forty Niners

    If the rather quirky and unique screen personality of Christian Slater is not your cup of tea, than I'd stay away from Kuffs. Reading the film credits before writing this review I learned that Kuffs was written specifically for Slater. I can't see anyone else this role of George Kuffs, amiable high school dropout who can't get his life together and is sponging off his big brother Bruce Boxleitner.

    Boxleitner is a patrol specialist, an institution dating from the days of the Forty Niners and unique unto San Francisco. There were not enough police to enforce any semblance of law and order in a town that just mushroomed over night. The city fathers assigned specific areas to people to enforce law and order and Boxleitner has one of those districts.

    But in his area, the merchants are being harassed and extorted and he's being offered a huge bribe to sell his district to some really nasty people. When he doesn't Boxleitner is killed and Christian Slater inherits his job.

    Despite some really gaping holes in the plot, the film is really carried along quite nicely by Christian Slater. Others in the cast of note are Milla Jovavich as his pregnant girlfriend, Leon Rippy as the hood who murdered Boxleitner and Tony Goldwyn as the SFPD officer assigned to Slater to keep him from getting killed.

    Still Kuffs is strictly a Christian Slater show and his fans will absolutely love it.

    A truly fun movie

    This is one of the best action-comedy movies that I have ever seen. The movie is full of hilarious one-liners, and action too. The plot is very original, not like a scheme I have ever seen in a cop film before. Don't watch this movie expecting it to be like Lethal Weapon, this isn't a film to be taken seriously. It's about a young, renegade 20-year old who takes over a special police unit after his brother, who ran the unit, was killed. This is a good action-comedy that will keep you laughing through the whole film. And Milla Jovovich is in it to boot...yeah, I'm a guy, sue me.

    Slater in a tailor-made role

    Christian Slater is the ne'er-do-well, yet the impressionalbly

    hip title character in this decent action comedy. George Kuffs

    is a high school drop out who decides to take over his dead

    brother's police patrol and to avenge his death. Kuffs stumbles

    his way to find to his brother's killers and manages to make a

    real image of himself. Slater is fine as Kuffs, whose constant

    joking around might have irritated the folks around him, but his

    humor really paid off, in this comedy flick that might remind a

    few Slater fans of his other avenger movie, "Gleaming the Cube,"

    except "Kuffs" is way funnier and more good

    • Quotes

      [Kuffs and Bukovsky, armed with pump shotguns, are facing about a dozen hoods in the film's climactic confrontation]

      Unidentified Hood: It's a twelve-gauge pump, boys. He's only got three shots. They can't get us all!

      [He reaches for his gun, Ted blows him away]

      George Kuffs: [gestures to dead hood] Well, now we know he can add...

      [gestures to Ted]

      George Kuffs: And he can subtract. So who wants to be next here?

    • Alternate versions
      The German video version was cut for violence (ca. 4 minutes) to secure a 'Not under 12' rating. It remained cut for nearly 30 years until the censors decide to pass the film uncut at 'Not under 12'.
