An undercover police officer named Rock Keats befriends a drug dealer and car thief named Archie Moses in a bid to catch the villainous drug lord Frank Coltan. But the only problem is that Keats is a cop, his real name is Jack Carter, and he is working undercover with the LAPD to bust Moses and Colton at a sting operation the LAPD has set up.
While some of the humor is very funny, there's nothing remotely interesting about the action stuff.

The audience is subjected to an onslaught of unfunny jokes, a string of useless profanity, and more explosive squibs than Caan wore in The Godfather.

The movie has a smirking homophobic bent and never makes you care or believe in the characters as much as in the first fifteen minutes.

Bulletproof doesn't quite misfire, but it never hits its target either.

The criminal activity onscreen in Bulletproof is penny ante compared with the felonious slaughter of story, character and logic exacted by the pic's filmmakers.
