I watched this because it's starred, written, and directed by Dax Shepard.

I expected a buddy cop comedy but what I got was juvenile toilet humor and gross physical gags that don't even land.

Not to mention the "buddy" part was ruined on account of there being zero chemistry between the lead characters, something I suspect is due to the dumb weak script. This was probably the worst of all this movie's "sins" since, at this point in movie-making craft, the formula for juxtaposing protagonists is so well-known to be considered a trope in itself.

My disappointment was palpable. I watched the last half/third merely out of morbid curiosity to see how much lower they could stoop to.

I wish I could give this zero stars but I can't. I suppose I can take solace in the fact that I can give it one star for Dax Shepard.

But worse than the first act of Genisys

And I'm even taking the casting of Jai Courtney into account

This will likely end up like Terminator 3, 4, and 5, which were retconned as not being "canon" so another movie can be made to further exploit nostalgic fans of T1 and T2
