I’ve been rooting you guys to react to this for a while. Finally. Glad y’all enjoyed it. Another great cop film, if you haven’t done yet, is Street Kings. Another stacked cast starring Keanu Reaves and Forest Whitaker.

@bluecollartradesman715 2 года назад

This role actually hurt Stallone's career. Given the cast the movie dramatically underperformed at the box office. Stallone struggled to get any roles for years after Cop Land. Ultimately Stallone had to return to Rocky (2006) to get his career back on track.

@sidewaysoul 2 года назад

@@bluecollartradesman715 Yeah, it's wild how Stallone was so great in this film, but Hollywood wouldn't hire him to do anything else like it. Hacky action crap if anything at all.

I met Robert Patrick at a convetion here in Sweden and got his autograf. I watched this movie when it came out 5 times in one week becuase i liked it. So i asked him about how it felt working on Cop Land with so many famous actors and what he thought about the ending. He said: "It was a great sqript and i never thought i was going to work with so many great actors. The ending is something we never seen in a movie. I am very proud of that movie and probably my best work i have done". For me it is a good movie that not alot of people have seen. It is a good movie, but i think they have to much characters and if you watch it for the first time, it's very hard to follow. That is why sometimes you have to watch a movie again to see how it follows and how good it is.

@dansiegel995 2 года назад

And for the record, the film didn't get "mixed" reviews (they were generally good), nor was it originally intended to be a western. The town of Garrison is inspired by Mangold's home town of Washingtonville, NY - a home to many NYPD cops - and the film was based on his experiences living there.

Fantastic reaction to a movie I only saw the one time! Better than I remembered! Man, this cast really was stacked! Harvey Keitel is the ULTIMATE dirty cop in "Bad Lieutenant" (1992 - same year he did "Reservoir Dogs"). De Niro's first movie with Scorsese is the excellent "Mean Streets" (1973)......and that movie stars Harvey Keitel as well....these guys have a long history together (and indeed, Keitel appears in "The Irishman"). And 8:24 that's Cathy Moriarty....De Niro's wife in "Raging Bull"! Underrated actress! Really enjoyed rewatching it with you, I'll have to rewatch it in full soon. Thanks, S &D!

@Earthcouldnotanswer 2 года назад

The casting of Stallone in this film is so good. At the time he was thought of as nothing more than an action movie actor and seeing him next to all these highly respected actors already made him the underdog in the cast. I went into it thinking why is he in this when a better actor could do the job better. I was completely wrong and he more than proved himself as a good actor. That dismissal of him as an actor at the time perfectly parallels the character's role as the Sheriff of Copland who is dismissed as a joke who no one really respects among a town full of "real" cops. Great casting.

@LarryFleetwood8675 2 года назад

@CineRam 2 года назад

I'm very pleased that you chose to watch this film, and that you liked it so much. Copland came out near the end of the summer of 1997, which was a summer where there was a lot of movies I was very excited for, but was disappointed by so many of them. Jurassic Park 2, Speed 2, Batman & Robin, Air Force One, The Fifth Element, Contact, G.I. Jane, a new action movie with Mel Gibson and Julia Roberts...I was eagerly anticipating each of these films, and they were all disappointing to one degree or another. This low-key drama was one of the best of the lot, which I was not expecting. (For the record, the movies that summer that I did like were Men In Black, Face/Off and Con Air.) You probably noticed that the director was James Mangold. He's become one of my favorite filmmakers, even though he doesn't have a particularly distinctive style--he just makes one solid, entertaining flick after another. Logan, Ford vs Ferrari, 3:10 To Yuma, Walk The Line, Identity and Kate & Leopold are all great. This guy doesn't have the public profile of Christopher Nolan or Quentin Tarantino, nor does he specialize in any particular genre. Give him a good script and decent actors, and he'll deliver a winner with very little fuss.

@bluecollartradesman715 2 года назад

I enjoyed Air Force One, I didn't mind the first half of Jurassic Park 2. The second half (San Diego) totally lost my interest. Speed 2 and Batman & Robin sucked big time. I didn't care for the Fifth Element when it came out, but I don't mind it now. Maybe that's just because modern Bruce Willis movies suck. I didn't expect to like Men In Black but actually liked it. I always liked Cop Land.

@disconnexionsdotcom 2 года назад

I worked at Planet Hollywood NY (the original on 57th st) when this movie was being filmed. Stallone used to watch the dailies (what they shot that day) in the PH screening room downstairs so that the production could save money. You'd know when he was there because all of our managers would be on edge.. LOL.. They were nice enough to give us employees passes to the Ziegfield theater premiere and the wrap party.

Actually Sly feels negative about Cop Land because Harvey Weinstein screwed him over. He thought it would be the beginning of a career Renaissance and that he'd be able to do more dramatic roles. Weinstein promised Sly things and didn't deliver on them (probably because the box office wasn't high on this).

Yesssss finally Copland! Definitely a underrated gem film! Sylvester Stallone gave a terrific understated performace in this film. He gained 40 pounds for this role and was deeply committed to play against his action character persona!

@ZoneTapes 2 года назад

YES! Ray Liotta's dialogue with Sly in this movie about perpetual motion could well be applied to many things such as how we get public servants in power to actually serve us if you think about it

Another really good cop movie that's a hidden gem is 1989's Black Rain, starring Michael Douglas and Andy Garcia.

@apb672 2 года назад

Black Rain!!! I would love for people to react to Black Rain.

What a great observation you guys made: this could have been a 10-episode series, and if it was made today, it probably would be!

@apb672 2 года назад

SO glad you two crazy kids got down with CopLand. I knew you'd love it.

@BattleMatt 2 года назад

Stallone in serious roles, Copland, Rocky, is superb. I think he hasn't done enough to show that range. Copland is basically a modern western. Stallone is also in a new series on Paramount as an old gangster, it's called Tulsa King.

@sunnyschramm9650 2 года назад

wonderful different role for stallone - I would love to see him more often in these kind of roles. great cast, great movie! Hope you watched the DIRECTORS CUT!

@alexvaraderey 2 года назад

I think that this was overlooked at the time, because it had Stallone in a serious leading role and that overshadowed who else was in the cast - having only known Stallone for Rocky and action movies, people may have thought that it wouldn't be that great, but it's actually a really good movie and Stallone plays Freddy very well. The deaf shoot-out at the end is astonishing.

@maximillianosaben 2 года назад

Great cast, great urban noir. James Mangold has a penchant for westerns, somehting you can notice in this and also in Logan. The finale of Cop Land is a classic High Noon-reminiscent western shootout.

@Bensonders 2 года назад

I'm glad you liked it!❤ Still one of my favorite Stallone movies! But please look at it this way: you not instantly knowing whats going on is a pretty good sign, isn't it? It would be boring if you could foresee everything that will happen. This is a rather small scale movie, no huge explosions and so on, just a tight crime story that keeps you guessing and on the edge on your seats!

@jenspfennig9226 2 года назад

To me this is one of the most underrated movies and I was excited when I read you decided to react to it. Whether Stallone should have won an Oscar for "Freddy" can be debated, but to not even receive a nomination is just plain wrong. Your reaction did not disappoint and you should definitely not worry about being off: Copeland is such an amazingly well written script with many angles/characters making it almost impossible for first time viewers to figure it out before the final show-down.

Everyone jumps when Stallone takes one in the shoulder from John Spencer.

Cop Land is an underrated semi-hidden gem. Serpico is another classic about corrupt cops (based on a true story) with Al Pacino. And HBO just put out a mini-series "We Own This City" also based on true very recent events regarding systemic police corruption--- but if you haven't seen The Wire yet, Serpico, then The Wire would be where to start. Great reaction!

@taskergrim9875 2 года назад

I've been excited for this one since you started your Stallone reactions. It's a personal favorite and I think aside from everything else Sly does something so different and special with the character, Freddy.

@samantha_schmitt 2 года назад

Aww yay!! Hope you enjoyed the reaction!

@The-Underbaker 2 года назад

Great movie. I bought this VHS many moons ago probably in '98/'99. I hadn't heard of it at the time but when I saw it in the store and it had Stallone, De Niro, Keitel and Liotta on the cover it was an instant purchase.

@thomasgriffiths6758 14 дней назад

The lawyer that Robert de Niro is yelling at is Bruce Altman who used to be a New Haven Connecticut resident and used to come into the video store on Chapel Street that my family owned and I managed. Nice guy.

@robertwill23 2 года назад

Good film with great cast and also with my favorite actress from 1990s Annabella Sciorra (wife of abusive husband-cop in the film). I'd recommend you to watch indie film hit from early 90s "Jungle Fever" (by Spike Lee) with Sciorra and Wesley Snipes. Or "What Dreams may come" (1998) with Sciorra and Robin Williams - great film.

@scottjo63 2 года назад

Then, of course Stallone and DeNiro play fun with their boxing personas in Grudge Match (2013). DeNiro had to really convince Stallone to do that role as Stallone didn't want to make fun with the Rocky character. Fun movie to watch.

@ActionJackson1982 2 года назад

RIP Ray Liotta. And there’s a Scorsese connection here, 3 actors from Goodfellas. Also Rocky and the Raging Bull. 90s movie have so many great actors often put in the same movie, like Heat.

@williamblakehall5566 Год назад

If you guys have never seen High Noon, you need to, not only because it is deservedly considered a classic Western, but because I consider Copland an heir successor to it, with Stallone as an unlikely Gary Cooper and Liotta as a VERY unlikely Grace Kelly.

@yeoldegamer5112 2 года назад

An often overlooked movie that reminded people that Sly could actually act and wasn't just an 80's action hero. A stellar cast and great direction and editing. For me it's a classic.

@OneAndOnlyMe 2 года назад

A hugely underrated movie. Movie deserves a 4K treatment on Bluray.

@charlesnyckd 2 года назад

You should check out “Narc.” Ray Liotta was absolutely fantastic. Also “Corinna, Corinna,” which was a light comedy drama in which Ray Liotta portrays a kinder and non-violent character. He has always stated “Corinna, Corinna” was a film he was truly proud of doing. His chemistry with Whoopi Goldberg was great too. As for “Cop land,” this was based on the upbringing of director James Mangold, who grew up in Washingtonville, NY (who had folks who worked in the city, including NYPD, FDNY, etc). It was pretty ballsy at the time for Disney to make this (through miramax). And yes, Stallone was oscar worthy.

@momalwayssaiddontplayballi3973 2 года назад

Another Underrated gem stacked with great actors is State of Grace (1990) set in NYC with The Mob, cops, and everything else you could ask for

@peterengelen2794 2 года назад

At least 9 actors & actresses in this movie, are also in ''The Sopranos'', and some of them even got major roles in probably the greatest tv-show ever made.

@__RYN__ Год назад

25:55 One of my favorite cop movies. Street Kings, End of Watch, Training Day,. Harsh Times with Christian Bale is good

@raminybhatti5740 5 месяцев назад

There were a lot of Sopranos cast members with roles in this movie.

@christopherschreiber5805 2 года назад

You guys aren't alone in feeling "off your game" for pretty much the entire run time. That was basically everyone I've ever talked to whose seen this, myself included. But I think that's partly the hallmark of a great story. Fantastic performances from Stallone, Deniro, and Ray Liotta, and another great reaction from you two. I know you're kind of on a Stallone kick right now, but I suggest NO ESCAPE with Ray Liotta. Super slept-on sci-fi/action thriller from 1994. And pretty timely as it's set in 2022.

@Thorongil83 2 года назад

I don't see many people even mentioning this movie but i remember that it was a big deal for Stallone when it came out. Very tense, story driven piece. The cast alone is amazing, Liotta (recently passed away, RIP), DeNiro, Harvey Keitel, Stallone is amazing here. Woman that plays young cop is Janeane Garofalo and i mostly remember her from Dogma (Kevin Smith's masterpiece i would recommend to watch if you already haven't).

@shawnhorror2522 2 года назад

For your next Stallone movie, please react to 1975's Death Race 2000. It stars Stallone, David Carradine who played Bill in the Kill Bill movies & Martin Kove who plays Sensei Kreese in Cobra Kai. I think you two will like it & find the story/plot a little disturbing, yet maybe even funny. Lol thx & keep the best reactions coming👊

@samantha_schmitt 2 года назад

You know what, I don’t actually think this was on our Stallone list yet! 😳 thank you for the recommendation!

@JW666 2 года назад

@@samantha_schmitt A great over the top satire and I wish The Purge movies where just like that one instead of being "really serious and this can actually happen for reals"! An early role for Stallone, but he was great, please react to it =)
