This DVD (and any other DVD released anywhere in the world) will play just fine on any multi-region DVD player, bought in USA or elsewhere. It will also play on most computers' DVD drives.

All you need to do if you own such Philips, Akai, CyberHome or other DVD player is to use your remote control to switch it to multi-region mode. As such features are almost always not documented by the DVD player's manufacturer, we'd recommend you check your DVD player's capabilities by searching the web for the words 'videohelp DVD Player and Blu-ray Player region codes' and choosing the very first link found.

Synopsis:
Based on James Ellroy's novel Blood on the Moon, Cop is a grim, brutally violent, darkly humorous modern-day film noir. Lloyd Hopkins (James Woods), is an obsessive, amoral LAPD police detective investigating a murder he believes to have been the work of a serial killer. Hopkins is cynical and obsessed with the way society fills women's heads with fairy-tale promises of romance. 'Innocence kills,' he sneers. 'I see it every day.' His investigation leads him to the bookstore of a writer of feminist poetry (Lesley Ann Warren) who has for some time been receiving gifts of poems and flowers from an unknown admirer. Hopkins, looking through her diaries, realizes that the dates of the gifts correspond to the dates of the murders, and he begins a hunt for the killer which leads to a violent and exciting conclusion. Cop is completely absorbing because of Woods' chillingly effective performance. Few actors can make an amoral, clever, sardonic, and vicious character as appealing as Hopkins. As Hopkins, Woods combines complex contradictions with ease, showing the various sides of his character's personality. Cop, while singularly unpleasant is always insightful and fascinating.

This oft-overlooked James Woods vehicle is a challenging but memorable thriller. Cop has two very strong things going for it. The first is that the film convincingly captures the seedy side of Los Angeles, making the atmosphere of failed dreams gone sour palpable without ever overplaying its hand. The other is an amazing, totally committed performance by James Woods, who effortlessly convinces the audience of his character's all-consuming need to punish evil, no matter the cost to him or those in his way. That said, Cop is so focused on its hero and his dark obsessions that it might alienate a good portion of its potential viewers. The film makes no attempts to disguise the fact that Lloyd Hopkins' obsessions have made him cross the line into amorality, and most of the other characters are portrayed as either contemptible (Charles Haid's corrupt cop) or pitiful (Lesley Ann Warren's emotionally damaged poet). That said, the supporting performances are good across the board: Haid and Warren make the most of their limited roles and Charles Durning is convincing and likeable as Woods' seen-it-all mentor. Also, the film's refusal to back off from its twisted vision inspires a certain respect in anyone who can appreciate cultish, left-of-center fare. Ultimately, Cop might be a bit too nihilistic for those used to more conventional cop drama fare but it's well worth the time for those thick-skinned viewers who can stick with its tough agenda.
