Most Cop Buddy Movies are Tripe

This just happens to be one of the worst....
It ranks right up there with:
Turner and Hooch
Stop or My Mom will Shoot and Tango and Cash...
Lethal Weapon, and its sequels are fun, but most buddy films are awful.
And films with precocious kids as sidekicks, are the worst of the lot (including tv shows featuring the same).

Whether Different Strokes, Webster, Leave it to Beaver, Dennis the Menace, Benson, Full House or The Brady Bunch, precocious kids are annoying, and anything but funny...
Putting them in cop films is insane...eg Kindergarden Cop..
Need I say more?

I would rather sit thru repeated showings of House of the Dead than see one more precocious brat, hamming it up...

(Gasps) Not Benson!!! NOT BENSON!!!!! You cannot ne must not sully the good name of Benson DuBois. The man really built himself up too much to see his good name sullied in the sake of bad child actors. Benson was a man among men and if you cannot accept that then i shall bid thee good day sir!
He was the Lietennent Governor damnit!

Ummm oh yeah Midnight Run is the greatest buddy cop movie of all time---and neither one of them are acutally cops! One's a Bounty Hunter and the other is well his quarry! Great f--king movie truly~ it doesn't matter that neither one of them aren't cops--Midnight Run rocks! No kids there that's for damn sure!

And as for Cop and a Half---well i don't know what about cop and a half!
