Aren't all buddy cop movies romcoms when you really get down to it? Instead of all that macho posturing and showing off guns, didn't you ever wonder if they really just wanted to, well, show off their guns in private? I've never seen a coming out in the middle of a brutal gunfight, but hey - that's the kind of ballistic buffoonery that Cop Secret has in store.
And if the end feels very Nolan Batman, well, director of photography Elli Cassata was a cameraman on Batman Begins.
Plot summary
When Bússi, Iceland's toughest cop, is forced to work with a new partner to solve a series of bank robberies, the pressure to close the case as soon as possible proves too much for him.

Fun buddy cop romcom
Not my cup of tea, but may be for you
If you're into Bollywood-esque, over-the-top parodies then this movies is for you!! I don't know if this missed the mark for me because of cultural differences (I'm American), but this just didn't do it for me. I was so excited to see it that I paid 10 whole dollars for it, which was definitely a mistake (and I am desperately attemting to get it refunded). I understand its a parody, and I love the unique twist they took on the macho cop trope! Its also got a couple pretty funny lines that made me cackle out loud, and expect to see nearly every Hollywood stereotype (enemies to lovers, epic one-liners, unrealistic events, the likes). However, it made me cringe so hard that I actually had to stop watching the movie a little past the halfway mark. I couldn't even finish it. I'm a queer man so I'm always happy to see some representation, but this style of movie just wasn't for me. It may work for someone else though!!
