Cops and Robbersons

In this crime comedy film, Chevy Chase plays Norman Robberson, whose suburban life is disrupted when a mob hitman moves in next door, prompting the police to set up a stakeout in the Robbersons' home. Hard-nosed Detective Jake Stone (Jack Palance) and his young partner Tony Moore are assigned to the stakeout, but they must navigate the chaos caused by the well-meaning but meddling Robberson family. With its mix of action, comedy, and thriller elements, Cops & Robbersons is a messy, often laughable take on the "fish out of water" genre.
