Coolest Moment: Street earns himself a place on the new SWAT team when he shows just how good he is with a firearm. And, yes, he’s very good.

Coolest Moment: “How do I look? I mean, do I look… Amish?” Book adjusts to life in the Amish community and attempts to make amends for the damage he’s done.

Turner & Hooch (1989)
The Cool Cop: Detective Scott Turner
Coolest Moment: It may not be official police work, but Turner struggles to give his new doggy partner a bath – something he clearly desperately needs. Proving he’s a smart cookie, Turner resorts to a lead and a hose …
If He’d Been From Blighty: He’d get lumbered with a stinky, horrible English bull terrier instead.
Demolition Man (1993)
The Cool Cop: Sergeant John Spartan
Coolest Moment: Spartan and nemesis Phoenix fight to the death in the future world, which includes jumping through the air in slow-mo while firing two guns at once. Awesome .

Starsky & Hutch (2004)
The Cool Cops: David Starsky and Ken Hutchinson
Coolest Moment: Starsky gets mean during an interrogation session, throwing a chair, then bits of paper, and then rubbing a cigarette into oblivion – WITH HIS BARE HANDS.

Leon (1994)
The Cool Cop: Norman Stansfield
Coolest Moment: Stan gets his comeuppance when Leon blows him to smithereens using grenades strapped to his chest. Don’t become a DEA agent and then do drugs, kids.
