Video Review: ‘Cop Secret’ – Bad Boys with a sprinkling of romance!

by Kevin Haldon

In his latest video, Kev reviews Cop Secret – a movie out of Iceland that pays homage to every 80s and 90s action movie you know and love while still remaining completely original in its own right.

COP SECRET recasts the buddy cop action genre in Iceland, where Bussi, a tough ‘Super Cop’, begins to lose his cool when he’s assigned a new partner – the suave, cultured and self-declaredly pan-sexual Hordur Bess – fighting an inner struggle while investigating a string of bank robberies where nothing seems to have been stolen

Cop Secret is co-written and directed with infectious energy by Hannes Þór Halldórsson, a professional football goalkeeper who plays for Iceland’s national team, best known for turning away a penalty kick from Lionel Messi in the 2018 World Cup. Here, he makes his feature debut.
