Lumsdal Good , But It Is Overrated By Some

Hulkeasexo it is the rare 'crazy' movie that actually has something to say.

Sameer Callahan It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

JLRVancouver Canada's two solitudes meet when 'by-the-book' English Toronto cop (Colm Feore) and 'loose cannon' French Montreal cop (Patrick Huard) are assigned to investigate a border-straddling (literally) murder. The plot revolves around hockey and the script is liberally laced with 'inside jokes' about the NHL, which are pretty funny but you'd need to follow the sport to get a lot of the humour. The leads are good, although the characters are pretty much 'buddy-cop' standards, as is the secondary cast (although even more 'standard'), but the situations that they find themselves in, and their responses to which, are exaggerated to the point of being almost a parody of the genre. Ironically, Rick Mercer, who often makes fun of American's miscomprehensions of Canada has a bit part in a film that essentially is one long string of Canadian stereotypes. The films may seem clever and well written to viewers who 'get' the hockey jokes, but viewers who don't may find it somewhat predictable, obscure, and silly.

flickking I've seen the movie last night which was Tues Aug 29, 06. My comments are as follows the script sucks, the acting could have been better and further more this got great reviews in Quebec and Montreal. Nevertheless, This makes snakes on the plane number one in the box office opps it did I should have saw that coming. However, If they make a sequel to this movie I will not see it in the theatre defiantly not. Note to Canadian directors or producers leave buddy cop flicks to the Americans OK. Thanks. I've seen most Canadian films in the past and its not to bad. Yet, when some movies should be left to the experts. I truly believe more work should have been put into it!!!.

dbborroughs When a body is found on the billboard of the border of Quebec and Ontario a cop from each province are teamed together to investigate.Amusing buddy film refuses to follow the rules of the buddy film genre and is all the better for it. Sure one cop is gruff and one neat but even though they argue they do become rapid friends because there is some sort of respect from the start. They nicely drawn characters, like everyone in this movie. These are people you really do like. The mystery isn't all that mysterious since a good number of the pieces fall into place early, but at the same time this allows for the movie to go off in its own way, with a couple of twists I didn't see coming. The action scenes are well done, and like the rest of the film don't follow the typical patterns-people get hurt and bleed. Best of all its really funny, not joke funny but humor coming out of the characters. I really like the film.There is one problem with the film, at least for a large portion of American audiences and thats half the film is in French. Its subtitled but the characters bounce back and forth between English and French freely (and even conjugate curse words). If you don't mind the on again off again titling I highly recommend this film.

daniel charchuk It's a buddy cop movie with some distinctly Canadian humour that's all about hockey. So, pretty much the most awesome movie ever made.There's nothing artistic or high-brow about its supposed 'style', and the hockey parodies are really obvious and fairly unfunny, but it's hard to top this kind of sheer outrageous fun nowadays. The banter between the leads is pretty great, and the linguistic comedy is occasionally hilarious. Still, it's rather embarrassing that this is both the highest grossing Canadian movie ever and the winner of the Genie for Best Picture in its year.Actually, thinking about it, it's still better than Titanic. So maybe not that embarrassing.
