- Quotes
Eddie Fein: Hey, who do you think you are hanging out in the bathroom? The Fonzie? Dad, do you really think Mrs. Novacek hired Martin to kill her husband?
Paul Fein: I don't know. Lenny said she did, but her first words in life were probably a lie. Look, we'll find out who killed Novacek. I'm no worried about that.
Eddie Fein: I know. I know, dad, I know what's eating you. It's Ben and Jackie.
Paul Fein: And you. Why the hell did you have to become a cop?
Eddie Fein: Have you been talking to Celia? You never said anything before about...
Paul Fein: -I'm saying it now. You and your brother are both smart kids. I don't know why you picked this... crap. I sure never told you to.
Eddie Fein: Dad!
Paul Fein: I've got kids who were cops in this world become a lousy nightmare for cops. I want my kids to survive. Why, Eddie? Why a cop? And don't give me sentimental bull become I'm a cop?
Eddie Fein: Dad, it had nothing to do with you. It was- it was the building. It was the brewery. All that old grey stone. I love the brutality of the architecture.
- ConnectionsFollowed by Breach of Faith: A Family of Cops II (1997)
Bronson is a legend.
Family Of Cops is a well made Cop Thriller with that nice cop thriller musical score that alot of t.v detective films have & works lovely here,The Legendary Charles Bronson is excellent here as Paul Fien an old school tough detective who is put in a tough situation when his Daughter is framed for murder. Angela Featherstone (One Way Out) plays Bronson's troubled daughter & she's a fine actress & we get Leslie Ann-Down (Death Wish 5: Face of Death) who gets mixed up in the murder investigation. A fine supporting cast to surround the legendary Bronson as he plays Veteran Homicide Detective Paul Fein, another fine performance by Charles.
Bronson really gives a great performance & infact this is one of his finest performances of his career!!! Paul Fien is also one of his best characters ever stands right next to the vigilante Paul Kersey from the Death Wish franchise.
Older & wiser & very comfortable in this role & Bronson outshines everyone else in the cast & the cast are all good especially Daniel Baldwin (John Carpenter's Vampires) one of pauls son's whose also a cop, there is alot of Family drama going on in this story & murder & mystery & a great lead in Bronson so although a t.v flick it's actually more than that to me it's one of his best movies!!! I love the Character Paul Fien he's an old school cop with morals & the guy you want backing you up in the line of duty.
I'm a huge Bronson fan & i love the Death Wish franchise & this little cop thriller is one of my fave Bronson flicks as it has such a nice pace & a nice atmosphere to it a good film to watch late at night.
The 2nd family of cops film was also very good but part 3 wasn't very good & some of the characters are played by different actors & that always ruins it for me but this first film is excellent & part 2 is very good so that's good enough Bronson entertainment for me.
