(This review may contain spoilers).
When I saw this film advertised for the first time, I did think it was something that I wanted to see… but I didn’t expect to find the time, what with all the other films I wanted to see as well.
Many comedy films use toilet or gag humour to generate laughs. In my opinion, that’s fairly cheap humour and really not the kind of thing I enjoy.
I was quite happy that the humour in this film came more from the characters themselves. I particularly liked the actors in this. There were more serious moments than I was expecting and that’s always a good thing.
I did notice, however, that there was that whole screechy-voice thing that I see a lot in films with comedic characters. It was interesting that that was played upon a bit, though.
This film definitely isn’t a serious portrayal of police work and one of the main characters did break a ton of rules. Then again, it probably wasn’t supposed to be a realistic portrayal.
The film was an entertaining one to watch. The actors were really good and the comedy moments worked really well without being too over-the-top. I would recommend this if you like comedy with action.
