BUT was just annoyed by the actor playing the brat kid. I felt like someone else could have played that character better.

rosalese2145 April 2020Great cast! Could of been a good movie. But, they shouldn't of made the kid act this way. I blame the writers. Everyone is upset with the kid, when all his doing is his job. The kid swears way to much, very disrespectful, obnoxious and very annoying. Poor kid, I hope this doesn't ruin his future.

Wow what an awful film , full of extremely bad language by a kid who looks about 14 and needs a good slap across his obnoxious face! All I thought throughout the film is why the hell did Ed Helms and Taraji P Henson want to take part in such a terrible production. Absolute garbage stay clear. I would give 0 stars if I could.

btreakle6 October 2020I love the film. Lots of satire and comedy. Stribg language for a 12 year old boy but funny lines. Ed Helm was good in this.

lelonzi6 April 2020Besides the weak plot the kid is unwatchable as he only speaks in vulgar swear words...

nogodnomasters6 May 2020I hate pun titles and like a moth to a flame. . . Officer Coffee (Ed Helms) of Detroit is dating Vanessa (Taraji P. Henson ) and it is getting serious. Her 12 year old son Kareem (Terrence Little Gardenhigh ) does not approve and with a sock full of change attempt to hire bad guy Orlando Johnson (RonReaco Lee) to take Coffee out of the picture. Drug deals, dirty cops, potty mouth kid. I think you get the idea. Try not to think to hard. Let you hair down and enjoy the stupidity.

bobbycasillas-bc4 April 2020The kid was over the top and worst part of the movie. A few lines was okay to set the movie,but every minute of the movie it just got worst. Less of the kid and more of everyone else would be better. Just a waste of time that only got more annoying with every minute.

kosmasp5 July 2020You have to love Ed Helms ... well if you don't, the movie will be quite the torture for you. Comedy is in the eye of the beholder. You may find this funny or obnoxious. That doesn't mean others feel the same way you do. But for what it's worth, if you are not too sensitive the movie works.
It knows what it is and never pretends to be anything else. It goes to show you, that entertainment is not the same for everybody. For some the kid is the most annoying they've seen - others will find the performance super funny. None is more right than the other. So watch at least a bit of the trailer to get a sense of what this is or rather what it feels like ... than decide if it is for you -
harperchris19165 April 2020Kareem was way over the top with bad language. It was like the writers had a contest to see how many F-Bombs and filthy phrases they could add.

indianriver-513614 April 2020Not sure what the low raters on this movie were looking for. It does exactly what it says on the tin. Culture clash comedy white straight laced cop meets fast talking street wise (with the tongue to prove it ) kid. Not taxing on the brain .. laughs in the right place. . Betty Gilpin as the woman detective is wonderfully over the top. Ed Helms is up to his Hangover best... and that kid (Terrance Gardenhigh) if he keeps this up, is going far.. Comedies can be hit and miss.. I've seen some that wouldn't get a smile out of me (yes Mr Sandler , I'm looking at you). This is a solid 8 .. the classroom rap scene alone deserves a sequel.

luke-mori19864 April 2020It's not the best of films but it's certainly not the worst. Kept me entertained and not at all boring. Slightly cheesy but it is an action comedy. An easy watch.

richard-937-4174174 April 2020The young character is so unlikable and overplayed. Couldn't me it through 20 mins.

Kareem has to be the most irritating, obnoxious, poorly-written character in modern movie history. He's meant to be 12, but looks about 16 and is extremely slappable. His lines are unbelievably offensive for a someone who's meant to be a child, something the movie's entire premise seems to rest upon. There's nothing clever about this movie; just a fat kid swearing as much as possible.

dc53029 April 2020It wasnt as bad as some people are trying to make it sound

wetever6 April 2020For a movie like this to work, the kid has to be likeable. In the first half hour the kid tries to have Coffee killed or injured by hiring thugs. You can't come back from that. Doesn't matter how he bonds to Coffee later, this kid is an awful human being. Between that and the constant profanity, I just couldn't care less about the kid. What an a-hole. And the kid's mom is supposed to be such a great mother figure that everyone around her does whatever she tells them to do. She makes criminals bow to her will. But she can't get her kid to have any decency in him. What a mess.

michelleld-9534916 May 2020This was not a master piece, it is a completely silly movie and it's just what you need when your bored and want a good laugh. Not sure what people were expecting, it's not Oscar worthy or anything but it is certainly a fun movie to watch.

wildmanski5 April 2020I honestly never wanted a character to die more than the kid in this dreadful film.

DS46322 January 2021To understand the situation with Kareem you have to have dealt with a "problem child" in real life. I think most people disliking the movie due to Kareem's vulgar language and banshee like attitude haven't experienced relationships with problematic children. I've seen plenty of kids that behave like Kareem, lol. The naivete and stubbornness of Kareem is annoying (as it's meant to be) yet entertaining.
The storyline is light allowing for the comedy to move the story along. Also, understanding that Coffee would have to go through the fire of Kareem to be with his mother Vanessa is a truthful revelation of dating women with a kid(s) and earning respect and love and all involved learning to co-exist. As to why people watched this movie and were so irritated, shows the lack of life experiences and the inability to understand that comedy isn't always pleasant, airy and mindless. This movie is hilariously great!! whomever gave a bad review...I don't understand what you expected to see? -
darrinsk5 April 2020Not funny, predictable, confusing and above all Netflix should be ashamed they produce this rubbish, this movie sets the bar even lower then Spencer Confidential!
-
alexthelion-217 April 2020Thought this was hilarious! Laughed all the way through. Thought it had some pretty touching and jaw dropping moments. Yes it's not Citizen Kane but just watch if your bored. The kid was super annoying but once you get past that, thought it was good!
-
Coffee and Kareem is comedic in a number of scenes but its not enough to carry this film. It is easy enough to follow but quite unoriginal in its story. Dirty cops to be taken down by a down on his luck cop. It also lacked a credible villain who were too silly and ridiculous. This film should have been turned on its head, had a stronger villain and a few twists. Having a 12 year old and a cop team up could have been hilarious and flowed really well. Many movies have pulled this off so its shame this film didn't. 6/10

olqabbi5 April 2020This film is horrible: the 12 year old kid who's plays in the movie has such a disgusting mouth constantly cursing word after word, he's worse than any adult in the movie. Jokes about eating p***y and D**k , like who wrote this life line? How is anyone going to feel comfortable listening to that??? I'm so sad that taraji would accept to be in a film like this. It's truly disgusting. Then all the racial comments falling into all the stereo types, it's okay for the 12yr old kid to curse at a white cop bc he's black and the cops white? Seriously disgusting Netflix. This needs to be taken off.

lboogy911 April 2020Even during this time of confinement I rather play with my thumbs than continue watching this movie. That kid is annoying, overplaying and a really bad young actor all rolled in a very poor writing dialogues. Had to check his age to see if he wasn't older playing younger. What a surprise to see he is actually 12. What's wrong with people (his parents and the studio's) to have young kids like that use that kind of profanities even for a movie. I was expecting a funny comedy and it was just a waste of time, couldn't last more than 20 minutes.

Gordon-1130 April 2020I sat through 30 minutes and decided I had enough of this trainwreck. It is truly horrid. The kid is such a disrespectful, even psychopathic individuals that he makes the number one gangster look like a cute puppy.
