Cops and Robbers is a poorly produced and poorly acted crime-drama, one that even by direct-to-DVD standards is just plain bad and not even worth taking a chance on with a rental.

VIDEO – 2.5/5, AUDIO – 2.25/5


Cops and Robbers is presented with a 16×9 enhanced 2.40 widescreen aspect ratio and I’m a bit surprised how bad the video and audio looked and sounded. From the opening scene this looks like a cheap production with bad coloring and soft images while the Dolby Digital 5.1 track has, even in what should be a quiet office setting, white noise in the background.

OVERALL – 1.0/5


Overall, Cops and Robbers is a poorly produced and poorly acted crime-drama, one that even by direct-to-DVD standards is just plain bad and not even worth taking a chance on with a rental. The DVD release itself has no bonus material and the video/audio transfers are average at best.
