Didn't even make it 30 minutes into this stupid movie before shutting it off. Really disappointed in Michael Pena cause he usually stars in really great roles. The characters were poor and the story was slow moving.
This is a weird one. Timing is weird. Characters are weird. Lines are quotable. "What chair?"*thumbs up*
So few comedies have the courage to go all out. Of course, when you go all out you transcend any genre, like Cronenberg's "Crash". So refreshing. Thank you. It is rare to watch a film that doesn't apologize for itself. Please make many more. To meet IMDb guidelines I have to right more. This reminds me of "Freebie and the Bean" and "Best in Show". Cheers.
If you have enjoyed good 70's detective homages such as The Other Guys and Jackie Brown, then it is very disappointing to see a director completely ruin a potential new hit and cult movie here.You can tell how disjointed and badly edited this movie is by the soundtrack, which tries multiple times to 'get us in the vibe' with cheesy 1970's cop show licks, only for the music to die an agonizing death as nothing at all happens during it. We are left watching endless boring stretches of film that should have been cut (the seemingly 5 minutes long part of the main gangster walking from his bedroom downstairs is one)The two main characters, one a self-absorbed prick who likes to lounge in his silk kimono and make fun of his fat son, and the other, a total alcoholic loser who likes hitting on strippers, are NOT funny. NOT at all. The fall-flat jokes come at us a mile a minute, and the movie tries to see-saw between shocking black comedy and yuk yuk make fun of it comedy and oh so serious cop drama. It's a total mess and not worth your time, frankly.
