Bulletproof

Release year: 1996
My Rating: ★½ out of 5

Tagline: Tough cop. Hostile witness.

Synopsis: An undercover police officer named Rock Keats befriends a drug dealer and car thief named Archie Moses in a bid to catch the villainous drug lord Frank Coltan. But the only problem is that Keats is a cop, his real name is Jack Carter, and he is working undercover with the LAPD to bust Moses and Colton at a sting operation the LAPD has set up.

You know what? Bulletproof is a terrible movie.

Maybe it's not good of me to throw the "hate" word around, but I think I really do hate this movie. Like there are other Adam Sandler movies that are worse in every way, but this is one I just could not stand watching.

It's got a good enough premise. Like, it's been done, but that doesn't mean it couldn't be good. But what makes this movie so awful is how unbelievably boring this is. At least Going Overboard is funny in retrospect for how terrible it is, and it has Dickie Diamond's delightful laugh. But what does this have that is even like slightly interesting? Absolutely nothing.

I don't really have anything to say about Adam Sandler specifically in this movie. It didn't really seem like he had much passion in this role, but can you blame him? No one did.

This might be the Adam Sandler movie I remember the least. I was nodding off the whole time because there was nothing in this miserable movie to keep me invested. You know the one thing I do remember in this movie? Adam Sandler pretending to be a mentally disabled person to fool a cop. Don't watch this movie. Let's move on to something better tomorrow.
