Kopps

Saw Kopps, a fairly goofy Swedish comedy about a group of small-town cops who spend their days messing around, bickering like children, and eating hotdog waffles. One day a pretty lady from HQ comes by to tell them their station will be shut down on account of no crime. So, the cops stage heists and try to convince everyone that gangs are coming into town.

The premise is funny and there's several outrageous scenes. One of the cops is an action-movie fan and spends a lot of tense moments quoting Scarface. He's probably the funnest character (also the star of this gif) The others are funny mostly in their ineptitude and their non-cop-like behavior. The film has a low-key style, often using lazy whistling on the soundtrack and deriving humor more from situations than from gags.

I can't really recommend it. It's completely inoffensive and sweet but I didn't think it was particularly funny. It's kind of nothing.
