Review of The Super Cops (1974) by Allan C — 20 Oct 2012
Released the same year as "Serpico", this true story of two rookie cops who buck a corrupt and apathetic police department to clean-up the streets of NYC. Though the story deals with the serious issues of drug crimes and police corruption, the film is breezy and entertaining, as compared to the much more strident = "Serpico".
Although "Serpico" is clearly the better film, "The Super Cops" manages to hold it's own in it's own offbeat way. A terrifically entertaining and smart film that deserves better than cult status.
