You can make all the excuses you want: Burt needed the money, the kid was a novice, The Fonz isn't the best director in the world.... But none of those facts can save "Cop and 1/2" from one glowing truth:
THIS MOVIE IS NOT FUNNY.
Now, what I have printed above this paragraph. In the big letters, there. See? Okay, here's what I want you to do: Print out this review, cut out only the sentence where it features the big print letters, go to all the video stores in your area, wait till they're not looking and tape that sentence over top of all the copies of "Cop and 1/2" you can find.
There, I've protected future generations.
One star and a half.
Prophetic, eh?
