Let's Be Cops Analysis
Let's be cops is the ultimate buddy cop movie directed by Luke Greenfield, starring Damon Wayans Jr. as (Justin) and Jake Johnson as (Ryan). Justin and Ryan are hometown buddies that went to the same college and decide to move out from Ohio to LA, California together. They were young and hungry to be successful and made a pact to return home if they turned 30 and were still living an unfulfilling life. Now they are 30 and are still struggling to find their careers and fit in. One night they go to a college reunion masquerade themed party which they show up dressed as cops. Everyone is of course laughing at them and they cannot redeem themselves because it becomes evident that the once popular football player ryan, no longer has any career and did not make it pro, and justin isnt a big time video game designer. Disappointed and discouraged they leave that party and as they walk, they realize that they are viewed differently as men in uniform. At their apartment, ryan comes with the crazy idea of the both of them pretending …show more content…
This is true in my life. I have see the difference of results when I've tried to do things on my own Vs. when I have had help from family or friends. For Ryan it was figuring out that his passion was to be a police officer. we can see when he asks Just not to quit and he says "I need you bro". that is candid moment when Ryan is genuinely asking for Justin to help him out through the investigation they are doing although they are not real cops. We can tell it takes a lot for him to admit that he does need help, and this is something that happens in real life. For me an example would be living away from home my freshman year of college. It was hard but i was not willing to admit it, and I thought I could make it on my own, that I could figure things out. It took a lot for me to realize that I was wrong, to tell my parents, and to make the tough decision of moving back

    GPS tracking could be implemented into each agency. In our society, overcrowding in the prison system is an enormous issue. Prisoners are being released into our communities and may even be involved in another crime. GPS tracking is essential to prisoners being released in our community. Such prisoners for instance, child molesters and drug traffickers would be monitored and track everywhere they go. If a child molester approaches a school within a certain radius than the GPS alarm would activate at the local police station and officers could pin point where to apprehend him/her for violating their parole. Drug traffickers could have a GPS monitoring system placed on themselves and on the vehicle. This GPS system would have to be activated nationwide due to suspects moving into another county or state.…
