Best Cops Movies

[Moo Moo]

So raljr1 did a thread asking for suggestions on Best War Movies. This got me thinking about my favourite Cop/LEO movies and finding out others suggestions that I might not have seen yet. Any input would be appreciated. Cheers.

So many good NYC crime movies were set in my home town, but In The Heat Of The Night was a favorite from small town America.

I thought "Let's Be Cops" was hilarious. Having been a cop made it even funnier for me.

French Connection

This one really has held up well over the years. It created some of the modern police cliches, which tells you how good it was.

Maltese Falcon

Great movie, but not a police movie, a PI movie.

Lethal Weapon

I thought this was an awful movie. Like a Beverly Hills Cop that took itself seriously. YMMV

 

[Bozz10mm]

I'm a fan of the Die Hard movies.

 

[CH4]

Dirty Harry
Serpico
Bullit
Seven

NOT THE BEST, BUT

A good one staring Michael Keaton, ONE GOOD COP! An underrated & not often shown movie. The elevator fight scene was awesome.
