This movie gets no respect even from it's own writers and actors! That's OK. I really like this movie. And listen, I watch movies that movie snobs/nerds would really go for: from Big Lebowski to Cool Hand Luke, back around to Chinatown, Vertigo or Superman 2. I have Netflix, people! NETFLIX!
I own the DVD and have actually watched it over and over. It's very short. It's good for parties. It's super silly in a way that you would expect from Louis C.K., Chris Rock, Dave Atell and David Cross. It's just some weird, stupid take on a Blaxploitation movie. I'll admit: it MAY not be your thing, and that's AOK. But I really like this movie.

I really liked this movie. It's not National Treasure or some Nick Cage summer blockbuster. I know Nicholas Cage can polarize people, but this movie definitely works for both kinds of people. It's also great for fans of crazy. At times I wasn't sure if he was acting or not. If you like The Soup with Joel McHale, this show could fill an episode with weird clips, for sure.
The title says a lot, he's a bad cop. He does drugs, he's somewhat depraved. OK, he's a lot depraved, poor scruples. He would not pass the Billy Madison "Business Ethics" test, but he is somehow still KIND OF a good guy, trying to help people.
It's a nutty movie. It's got some iguanas and a soul that dances, so enjoy it for that at least.

Either you like it or you don't. I think this movie is hilarious. I also think it's stupid. It's profane, juvenile and idiotic the whole way through. It's not just stupid people in a normal world - like Adam Sandler going back to high school. There's a twinge of stupid in everything. It's got an annoying acapella family, parents who let their 40-year-old sons live in the house and a ridiculous helicopter-leasing brother. So yeah, even their world is a caricature... really, the "Catalina Wine Mixer"? There almost is no "straight man" in the comedy.
I COULD find criticisms, "Will Ferrell and John C. Reily's characters seemed too smart at times..." but to find fault in things like that is to completely miss the point.
This movie cracks me up, out loud, almost the whole way through. Do not watch it with your kids or with your mom.
