Synopsis
The
streets of LA are tough, they need a tough cop, 'Jake Cop'.
Shot in Newport, South Wales, but set in LA (go figure), 'Cop 9' tells
the story of maverick Los Angeles police detective 'Jake Cop' and his
attempts to catch the murderer of his long time trusted partner 'Jimmy'
by the evil Colombian drug baron 'Sanchez Conchita Gonzalez'.
The film opens with a black and white flashback sequence set on the
top of one of Newport's, I mean La.'s, highest buildings. A violent
shoot-out sees Jimmy plummeting to his death and Sanchez escaping from
Jake's wrath, thus setting up the rest of the film for a cliché
fest of truly spoof proportions. Will Jake wrestle with his guilt and
catch the bad guys, how many times will Jimmy appear in flashbacks,
and more to the point, who wrote this garbage?
When they made 'Cop on the Edge IX: Prelude to justice' they not only
broke the mold, they smashed it deliberately.
