80's Homage
I appreciated this movie for what it was. At times it felt, in both cinematography and in dialogue like such mainstays of the genre as 48 hours, Die Hard, Lethal Weapon, and The Last Boyscout. Willis and Morgan are hilarious, and any scene he is in is completely stolen by Sean William Scott. Kevin Pollak's portrayal of the antagonistic "other" detective that "has your back in the end" was sublime.
It had moments of bad taste as you expect from Kevin Smith, but in the sense that your jaw drops and then you laugh out loud. The soundtrack was great, and was yet another homage to 80's buddy cop movies. I left the theatre chuckling.
