Welcome back to Bad Dads Film Review! Today, we're diving into the tense and thrilling road of Cop Car, a 2015 indie thriller directed by Jon Watts. Starring Kevin Bacon, this film takes a simple premise and turns it into a nail-biting ride filled with suspense and unexpected turns.

Cop Car follows two young boys, Travis and Harrison, who stumble upon an apparently abandoned police car in a secluded area. Overcome by curiosity and the thrill of rebellion, they decide to take the car for a joyride. Unbeknownst to them, the car belongs to a corrupt sheriff (played by Kevin Bacon), who will stop at nothing to get it back, especially since it contains something valuable and incriminating in the trunk.

As the boys navigate the rural roads, joy quickly turns into horror as they realize they’ve become the target of the sheriff's desperate and dangerous pursuit. The narrative tightens like a vice as each party's motivations and backgrounds unravel, leading to a series of tense and harrowing encounters.

Cop Car explores themes of lost innocence, as the adventurous spirits of two young boys lead them into a grave and adult situation. It also delves into moral ambiguity, particularly through the character of the sheriff, whose actions raise questions about authority and ethics.

For those who love edge-of-your-seat thrillers, Cop Car is a must-watch. Its blend of excellent performances, masterful tension-building, and a straightforward yet effective plot makes it a standout film in the thriller genre. It’s a perfect example of how high stakes can be skillfully executed with a minimalist approach.

So, buckle up as we take a closer look at Cop Car, exploring how a simple story can be transformed into a riveting thriller that keeps you guessing until the very end. Whether you’re a fan of intense chase sequences or nuanced storytelling, this film promises to deliver both. 🎬🚓👨‍👧‍👦🍿

Reegs: good. Very good.

Sidey: Well done.

Cris: well done. Yeah.

Dan: Well let's get back to the, the the G Black Forest Ghetto.

Sidey: Well, yeah. Cop car, so I had never heard of it. It's a 2015 joint.

Reegs: it starts,

Sidey: And it starts, if I remember rightly, with two kids

Reegs: the word weiner and two kids walking across a field. Exactly that. Yeah. Exchanging insults for a good three or four minutes. Yeah.

Dan: Well, practicing naughty words, really, aren't they? One of them's kind of leading the other one. And he's saying, Bitch.

He's gonna say, bitch.

Sidey: he gets to

Dan: Fuck. And you go, no, that's the worst. That's the

Sidey: I'm thinking, no, it's not.

Cris: the

Dan: more than that you haven't gone through them, but there's a a fence a kind of

a wire fence a barbed wire fence that They go through they've got just carrying a couple of sticks and

Reegs: They go past a snake hole, which they jab sticks into, which doesn't seem like a great idea.

But then again, these are two of the most convincingly stupid 10 year old kids I think I've ever seen in a movie.

Dan: excuse me, they're bored,

Sidey: It's not, we're not explicitly told straight away, but I figured they'd run away.

Reegs: run away. Yeah but thankfully one of them has hidden enough food for the journey, which includes like a, is it, they call it a Slim Jim maybe?

It's like a peperami,

Sidey: Yeah. A long pepper. Yeah. We have two centimeters of it a day. Yeah. Yeah.

Reegs: And helpfully, it just establishes that you're gonna hide You can hide stuff in there, the kid can hide, cause there's like a real economy of storytelling in here, everything is Referenced and used so yeah, they're walking along jabbing the snake hole and then they find just a cop car out in the middle of nowhere and, you know, they start like, one of them's like, go and throw a stone or whatever, and they throw a stone at it, it hits it, and they're like, oh my god, like,

Dan: Our prints are on that stone.

Reegs: prints are on that stone, we gotta go and get it, so they run back and they get this, oh no, which one is it, touch it, no, you touch it, I'll touch it, like, you know, and this goes on for a good 20

Dan: Well,

they're believing somebody's there in the car and they're still

Sidey: you don't expect to have a fully operational, you know, cop car.

Cris: Sheriff's

Sidey: right there.

Reegs: so yeah, before long it goes from touch it or whatever and like running away really scared to, yeah, driving, getting in it, finding it's got the keys, putting it into first and driving very, very slowly, occasionally swapping the seats and going out for a burn off in a field.

And then we cut to Kevin Bacon.

Dan: this, this is, this is Unfortunately where my viewing stopped on this particular film.

Cris: When he arrived, I have to say, I thought that he was, it was almost like there's another cop car coming and he's going to realize that it's like, Oh, where's the other one or something like that. I didn't know that this is. Oh, 10 minutes later, 10 minutes earlier or something like that.

Reegs: they actually, he, they cleverly establish it straight away by the presence of a green bottle that's on the car, but yeah, anyway,

Cris: yeah, when you see him,

Reegs: up, Kevin Bacon gets out of the car and he's a sheriff and he starts taking his clothes off and drinking a beer and you're like, okay. And then he opens the boot of his car, drags a body out and

Sidey: well, first of all, he gets the body bag, doesn't he? Oh, okay.

Reegs: Okay.

Cris: Yeah, the big sheet.

Sidey: he gets, he gets one body out, puts that in, that drags it over somewhere.

Reegs: somewhere. Like a big

Sidey: And what, what he drags, he like, oh wow. He's either really prepared or this is something he does

Reegs: Yeah,

exactly, yeah.

Sidey: because the body goes in, it gets a bag of lime. Yeah. Cuts that open, dumps that in, goes back.

Cris: has a ciggy,

Sidey: yeah. He goes

Reegs: and then goes back, goes back to his car, the car's gone. So now you're suddenly like, ah, that's what's happened here.

The kids have, in the time that it's taken him to drag the body off, they've had all their little fun

Dan: Why?

Reegs: the car. So it's a great little jump.

Sidey: So he's the cop is, he's a crooked cop.

Cris: he's only got a wife beater Yeah And he's like,

Trousers, the

sheriff's trousers. No gun? No. He only has a mobile phone.

Sidey: So, but

Reegs: which he uses to phone dispatch straight away.

He's like quite

Dan: What's his, what's his face like

when

Reegs: He only loses it for about a second.

Sidey: He's, he's really resourceful.

Reegs: then he straight away triggers into like, I've got to fucking sort this out. So he phones up dispatch and he's like, Ha ha, I've got radio problems. Is there anything weird being going on in my car?

Nothing weird, nothing going on. And they're like, no, no, it's all fine.

Sidey: The kids, we have seen the kids pick up the, the handset. Yeah. And they, they're working out what they're going to say.

Cris: But he burps first.

Sidey: they're going to do all kinds of crazy shit and then they're like, wait, no, because then they'll know that we've got the car.

So they don't do it, but they're like on the cusp of, like, giving the game away.

Reegs: At this point, by the way, they're kind of off driving the car on the main road, sort of, kind of weaving over, occasionally swapping seats. They've now, at this point, worked out how to actually stop the car and do it. And now, there's at one point, they're absolutely fucking burning it along the road.

Like, one of them's like, go on, put your foot down, sort of thing. And this woman, Bev, her name will turn out to be, sees them and is like, what? You know, two

Sidey: It's like one of those tropes in a film. She doesn't do it, but you almost sort of expect her to look at her drink and think, you know, am I pissed or something, you know, yeah.

Reegs: whatever. Yeah. So, yeah the, he tells dispatch, don't contact me on the radio.

If you hear anything weird, there's interference. Truckers have, are interfering on my signal and blah, blah, blah. So just contact me on the phone.

Sidey: goes to the diner. She stops for food and coffee or whatever. And two policemen come in to get their fricking donuts or whatever it is.

And she says, actually, You can see it just

Reegs: yeah, there's

Sidey: like a, she's

Reegs: table and she, you can see it burning a hole in her brain, like, she's sitting there, it

Dan: I should say something,

Sidey: brain, like, she's sitting there

Reegs: Meanwhile, Kevin

Bacon, Sheriff Kretzler as his name is, he's gonna go, he's getting off being resourceful. He goes to a trailer park and there's like a real tense two or three minute scene where he uses his shoelace to pick the lock in the car and open the car window and steal a car and off he goes and he goes back home.

To find

Cris: stopped by the police on the way and,

Reegs: I sat on the way to his

Sidey: yeah,

Cris: to his house? Yeah.

Reegs: He stopped in

Cris: calls like a, a false robbery or something like

Sidey: Yeah, he's, he's good on thinking on his feet, isn't he? Because the, the policeman's coming towards him. He's in a stolen vehicle. He's Nothing adds up so he gets his gun and he just covers it with his top or with a whatever's in the car like a Blanket or something and he like this fucking guy's gonna get killed here, but he's phones in a fake

armed robbery or

Cris: is like a 309

code,

Reegs: it is, right in the surrounding area. So just as the guy's like badgering him for his information, step out the car part, like then he gets a call on the radio.

Any officers in the area respond to this and he fucks off. Like, so you see him change

Cris: the whatever on the car

Reegs: Yeah.

Dan: Right, okay, so he's got

Cris: but it's a, it's a tense moment. And then you can see him just getting out of the car. He just walks up across a little field and he just that's his house.

Reegs: got a cartel somewhere, I mean he goes

into

Sidey: like proper big. He's in

Dan: Kilo bags

Sidey: or something. He goes into his ward, this cupboard and he's got fucking Uzis

and

Reegs: and all sorts of

Sidey: And he does a load of gear. He just cuts open one of these

Cris: But meanwhile he does try to, he does go on his dispatch thing on his walkie talkie in his truck and he tells dispatch, why don't we all change to channel seven because his interference is he makes the dispatch believe that the interference is coming from the line that they're on. I can't remember how he does it with his

Reegs: making the, give it feedback or whatever.

So

Sidey: He keeps, like, doing that with the radio and pulling it full blast and putting the thing on it, the hands on it, so they all go, ah!

Reegs: Gives him the opportunity to talk to just the kids on the radio and radio on the other frequency and say, right, I know you're out there. Nothing's going to be happen. You're in lots of trouble. Let's sort this out. We'll come and meet up and that they can't hear him because they're in a field.

They've got the shotgun and machine gun out the back of the police thing and the kids standing

Sidey: He's looking, literally looking at it.

he's

Reegs: looking at it like that, down the barrel and that, and he's trying to like, why won't it fire, like, just pressing the thing. And then the kids,

they've

Cris: other kid has a bulletproof vest on,

Reegs: vest and a shotgun, I think.

And he's stood there like, make sure you hit the vest, he says.

Sidey: They just haven't figured out there's a safety.

Reegs: Yeah, that's the only reason that they haven't died. Like, yeah. Anyway.

Sidey: Then he does hear, one of the lads does hear the, the, the radio thing. Because he's, he's been told by dispatch that, Oh, we had some woman say that, say that she goes, Oh, it's all going on today. We've had someone with a report of two kids driving a police car. And he's like, Fucking hell, two kids, he like laughs, and he's like, oh, I'm in luck here, I just need to sort this out, so he, he says to them, listen you're not in any trouble, we just need to meet up and sort this out, they haven't got a fucking clue where they are So

Reegs: it's fucking hot. One of the lads, he

Sidey: He just like fucks it off. He just kind of, one of the la he just dismisses it, but he goes over just mates, says, another guy from the, if we need to get on and, you know, get out of here. You know, the policeman's on the radio, blah, blah. And he says to them, listen, whatever you do, don't go in the fucking boot.

You haven't been in the boot, have you? Yeah. And they're like, no. So then, but they hear a knock and it's like Goodfellas, there's a fucking guy like in the boot.

Reegs: they, the boot opens up and it's from the perspective, the person in there and the kids are there with like the shotgun and the machine gun, like aimed at him.

And it's Shea Wiggin, an actor I really like. And he's just absolutely gone to pieces. I'll tell you anything, man. All this like goes on for life before maybe two or three, you know, two minutes before he realizes, hang on. It's 10 year

Dan: of kids.

Reegs: And,

Sidey: to talk them round.

Say, listen, listen, just help me out, cut the He's, he's bound, you know. He's like, cut my hands free, I'll, I'll help you, I'll, I'll sort you

Cris: buy you, I'll give you candy, I'll give you money, blah, blah, blah.

Sidey: you're like, don't fucking do

Reegs: do you like play? Do you like girly

Sidey: I'll get you a Playboy, yeah. And you're thinking, don't let him out, don't fucking do it.

And sure enough, but then we, it gets back on the radio. He, one of the lads radios in and says, yeah, okay, like, they start planning where they're going to meet. But you just hear his voice and you see Kevin Bacon, he's like, what's around you? It's all got one of those like, windmill things, you know, those creaky fucking things that go off in the Midwest.

And he says, okay, yeah, I think I know where you are. Just stay put. I'll come and get you. And the camera cuts and the lads there at gunpoint, the guy from the fucking boot of the car has got him at gunpoint. Getting matey to come out.

Reegs: Yeah, baiting him for an ambush, basically. So, that's how it's set up. He takes a good five or six minutes to establish his geography of the car and where he's going to

Sidey: they just sit they just sit in the car watching him.

He looks really weird

Reegs: it's really

Cris: is he doing?

Reegs: Because it's quite a short

Cris: he going to the toilet? Yeah. I think he's, I think he's trying to hide.

He's really shit at hiding.

Reegs: And he does hide anyway, eventually.

And then Kevin Bacon turns up, but he's like suspicious as he gets out the car, carrying an Uzi, always scouting, making sure. And he does sure enough clock that they,

Sidey: bonnets open this other boot

Reegs: Yeah, the trunk's open and he moves around the other side of the car so the guy hasn't got a clean Shot and he's sort of lining up to take him but he can't and then Bev turns up the

Cris: woman that's seen the kids initially.

Reegs: She's driving past and she sees the cop car there and she's like I fucking knew it you bloody kids She comes storming out the like shouting i'm gonna i'm gonna tell your parents blah blah blah and then Ping shot straight through the head is, well, actually, she,

Cris: No, she sees Kevin Bacon on the floor. No, he's on the floor and he's pretending to be injured.

Reegs: Kevin Bacon.

Cris: Yeah. He's like, ah, these kids father stole the car and shot me. And he threw the keys on the other side where he's thinking this guy's hiding.

Reegs: Yeah.

Dan: Okay.

Cris: he's like, can you search for my keys? I'm being hit in my shoulder, in my foot or whatever.

I can't walk. She goes around searching for things. And then while she looks for these imaginary keys, and she just see, oh, there's a man here. And then you

Reegs: say she gives away his position. Yeah. And then

then she's gone.

Dan: Wow,

Reegs: Yeah.

Cris: there's a shootout between Bacon and Riggs's mate, his favorite actor.

Reegs: Shea Wiggum, there's a shootout.

They both shoot each other. Chief Wiggum, they they shoot and kill each other, basically.

Cris: Yeah, we're

Reegs: Yeah, we're led to believe.

Sidey: got Bacon's got an Uzi. Mate, he's got some sort of, like, assault rifle y type thing. It's, like, really high powered weapon. He gets it in the gut, I think, Kevin Bacon.

And the other guy is just, you know, Shot in the head, I think, just, just, yeah, he's properly, there's no doubt about that, he's killed. And as the

Dan: Gut shots are meant to be painful,

Sidey: the kids in the car are sort of looking out and you get that, the bloody hand comes up onto the, the window and, and, and drops down.

Cris: this point, the last, the next scene is where the kids realize, well, which they have been locked in the back of the police car where there's, you can't get out,

Reegs: out, yeah.

Cris: but one of them has a gun hidden. The, the actual. Pistol the police gun. Right. But they don't know that there's a safety on.

so

they

Reegs: they're like trying to throw it. They're throwing it at the window in the back of the, to break it. I mean, then like hammering on it. It doesn't work eventually. He, the kid does get the safety off cause he accidentally

Sidey: I think in one of the throws just knocks the safety off, doesn't it? And then he

just

Cris: He just shoots in a,

Reegs: shoots the ceiling and then they're like, alright, so they shoot, they both retreat back. They shoot and the first one is sort of like, you hear like a ricochet and he's missed the window, you don't know. And then he fires again and the window's gone and he opens the door. But when he looks back, it's the kid with the longer hair who's gone on a bit of a journey over this.

And He's the, the other kid is, yeah, been shot

Sidey: Shock to the heart. The stomach

Cris: in the gut yeah in the gut yeah

Sidey: So he's, his mate's gonna get behind the wheel and they've been shown in the, in the driving sequences, the one who now has to drive, I should really know their names, but I can't

Cris: front of the road. It's Harrison. Yeah, Harrison's the one with the hair.

Reegs: he's the more circumspect of the two.

He's like the, the sort

Sidey: he hasn't been that confident behind the wheel. He wouldn't, he wouldn't put his foot down mate, who's been shot. He was the real daredevil who was like, properly booting

Dan: the smaller lad's been shot?

Yeah.

Sidey: So, so he now has to drive him to town and it's just just a fucking endless long road. You cannot see a

Reegs: cannot

Cris: and he doesn't know how to turn on the lights,

Reegs: know how to turn on the lights. He's figuring out how to

Sidey: He can put on, he's figured out how to put on the actual police siren, but no headlights.

then,

Reegs: the movie ends with,

Sidey: no, Bacon goes after him. So it runs really ambiguously because he's chasing them in, in, I think it's Bev's car. And ramming them and you're just driving and eventually he crashes into a bull.

Cris: Yeah, because

Reegs: they'd started earlier. They'd let a bull out and they'd started the bulls loose way earlier in the film and let him out.

So yeah, Kevin Bacon was

Sidey: they managed, have swerve

Reegs: of irony.

Sidey: Then, but then they're just driving and you cannot see a light and eventually they just kind of go up a little bit, I guess,

Reegs: They crest a hill,

Sidey: they just crest it and you can see the city, well, it's not even a city, I don't think, a town,

Cris: then this patch goes on,

Sidey: and then it just, it ends, so

Cris: No, dispatch comes on, dispatch

Reegs: yeah, they, on the

Cris: and then you can see Harrison,

Sidey: don't know if he's going to make it

Reegs: You don't know, no, that's it,

Cris: He

Dan: gonna make

Cris: actually, but then that's it.

Yeah,

Dan: Common, he's gonna make it.

Sidey: I thought,

Dan: It was a clean shot. It

Reegs: It'll be all right. Yeah,

Dan: was just through the side. It was too, it was bad, but it wasn't, I've never seen it. But it sounds like I,

Sidey: fucking

excellent.

Reegs: It's good.

isn't it?

Sidey: Yeah, really.

Dan: I've started watching it. So I'll revisit, but,

Sidey: The kids are great.

Reegs: great. The kids are like the most convincing kids you've ever seen, I think, in a movie. And it's like really tense and unpredictable and funny and Like, the amount of times there are almost, like, catastrophic accidents with guns.

Sidey: Because

they, they have quite a few go at shooting it.

And then he is, then he like, starts looking literally down the bow. You're, oh my God, what are you doing? Yeah.

Cris: Oh, is it empty? Why would they work? And then when you see the kid with the vest, it's like, The vest is down to his knees. So it's just It's

Yeah, it's just like massive bulletproof vest.

Sidey: But it's funny because kevin bacon in this he's obviously he's Whatever his history is he's got previous for murder.

He's well into and he kind of gets outsmarted by two fucking idiot

kids

Reegs: murder.

Yeah. And he

Sidey: Well, we know nothing about him exactly

Reegs: gets outsmarted by two fucking idiot kids. Where things have happened in different time frames or like establishing the geography like at the end There's a bottle smash that like tells you where everybody is in relation to it and all that like It's just it's clever

Cris: There's not that many actors either. No.

Sidey: no. It's

Cris: got the two kids, you got him, you got Bev, you've got the, the, the guy on the motorbike and the people in the diner and that's it.
