I'm thankful that I'm watching this cat yack on HBO because if I had paid to see this in the theater, I would probably get arrested demanding my money back. With 40 minutes left, I find myself wishing that I could be water boarded by the CIA!
There was Starsky & Hutch, The A-Team and more recently Baywatch remakes. Then there was CHPs. Plot poor, story poor, setting the scene poor, acting poor, continual sexual innuendo poor, side story poor....poor poor poor. Stunts okay, supporting cast okay, music okay, direction okay. To sum up, an appauling movie which failed to hit the mark, best to avoid, look for original TV episodes on YouTube, they are better and ultimately funnier.
How did this happen. The editing is genuinely awful. The camera shots are school grade. 6th grade to be exact. No jokes landed, no stunts landed. As a director with Talent how do you mess this up. I'm going to go watch the Point Break remake to get this out of my system. At least the end credit music was good. R.I.P. Tupac.
As a hard core classic movie buff I HATE most horrible remakes of old TV shows and "re-invisioned" classic movies. Something about this movie is different though. There is great chemistry between Dax Shepard and Michael Pena in this. The writing and dialogue is crisp and never gets bogged down. Where most movies like this make me groan, this movie made me laugh...and that's something very few so called 'comedies' do for me anymore these days .
