Blue Streak (1999)

Criminal impersonates a cop and lives the job to the full while he searches for a diamond buried under a police station. It isn't much more than standard action-comedy fare and it is blatant in its disrespect for what is at all credible but Martin Lawrence does animated bozo characters well, if you like simple teenage humour.

Damn , Love it Love it Love it. Super fun movie ,I don't know why this movie has less ratings just 6.3 that is bad . I rated this for 9 for sure . don't miss it . How come I missed this movie until now. I watch a lot of movies but some how I missed this . But now Im glad I watched one of the best fun movie .Martin Lawrence steals the show, did great job .

I liked this movie it got quite a few laughs out of me. There is quite a good storyline and the actors and good. What happens is a criminal (Martin Lawrence) steals a diamond then hides it in a building a while later when he is released from prison he goes to get the diamond only to find out that the building has been turned into a police station. He tries to get in by doing a number of things which include pretending to deliver a pizza. After all else fails he joins the police force to try and get the diamond back. I think this movie is very enjoyable and I would recommend it to most people. I personally rate this movies a 7 out 10.

This is one of those movies that I watch to simply tum my mind off and enjoy. Some of my friends immediately expect it to be bad, while I think that it looks interesting and go and see it anyway, and usually end up enjoying it. Blue Streak is in a similar vein to Bad Boys, with Martin Lawrance as the big mouthed negro who seems to never have anything go right.Lawrance plays a crook who steals a very valuable diamond but is betrayed by one of his colleagues who decides that a quarter of the proceeds is not enough. While escaping, he hides the diamond in a construction site. Two years later, after being released from gaol, he returns to find that the building is a police station. So he disguises himself as a police officer to get into the building and to steal the diamond.Blue Streak is a comedy of errors. It is not that Lawrance is an idiot, but rather that he is a crook, and everybody around him treats him as if he were a well decorated cop. He also seems to be able to solve cases that most cops couldn't because they do not have the criminal background that he has.Blue Streak isn't something that has any deep, philosophical meaning, but it is a cute movie to watch and enjoy. It is not entirely original, as role-reversals have been a common form of comedy for ages. The role reversal may be a little different, but I am sure there are other movies were crooks become cops and vice versa. It is just that Martin Lawrance adds cool spark to it.
