Rotten
Trapped in a sitcom sensibility, the film never makes the vital connection with the audience that's necessary to spawn a hit.

Chevy Chase returns to the anonymous, unmemorable suburban mode that made his earlier movies profitable. And guess what? The results are anonymous and unmemorable.
Jonathan Rosenbaum, Chicago Reader
Rotten
In Cops and Robbersons, Chevy Chase has an unfortunate chance to prove that there's something even more unfunny than his disastrous talk show.
Janet Maslin, New York Times
Rotten
Chevy Chase is lucky Cops and Robbersons isn't a sitcom. If it were, it would be canceled as pronto as his talk show was.
Richard Harrington, Washington Post

Know what this sounds like? It sounds like a screenplay.
