Linbeymusol Wonderful character development!
Rio Hayward All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Matylda Swan It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.
Allissa .Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
Michael Ledo Luis (Luis Guzmán) and Eddie (Edgar Garcia) are crack NYC cops on the front lines in the battle against "illegal drugs, human trafficking, and terrorism" by taking knock-off hand bags off the street. They are hired by Colette (Alice Taglioni) a French hand bag designer to find her new design stolen hand bag. The plot weakness is that in Paris, NYC cops have no jurisdiction. Paris cops or private detectives can't do the job, only two Puerto Ricans (with one being a half-wit) can do the job.Eddie is married to Luis' sister (Rosie Perez) while Luis recently broke up with his girlfriend (Rosario Dawson) over the commitment thing. Luis goes to Paris as a crude American pick up artist while Eddie shows a little class and style and has major appeal to the young ladies to the chagrin of Luis. I discovered that FUBAR is a place and not just an acronym and Luis discovers that all the French speak English and pretend that the don't.The film has some humor and works back on itself like most decent script.Guide: F-word. Brief model nudity
trustingnone-25778 This is one of the best comedies I've seen in a long time. The chemistry between Garcia and Guzman remind me of the old comedy duo of Abbott and Costello. The French actors are amazing and bring a lot of substance and depth to this awesome movie. I hope they're planning a sequel! A must see film for everyone!
chilipeppers-17879 Overall, I thought it was a good movie. There was one part I didn't quite understand. They're looking for a stolen purse. They found it with one of the suspects, then they're looking for it again. HOW DID IT GET LOST AGAIN? That's my only question. I need ten lines so I'm putting in this for satisfy: The Raven by Edgar Allan Poe First Published in 1845 Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary, Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore, While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping, As of someone gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door. " 'Tis some visitor," I muttered, "tapping at my chamber door; Only this, and nothing more."
Reno Rangan This is not a film that everybody was looking forward. This something an unexpected film from the new crew, but the actors were somewhat known to us. They are mostly supporting cast from the mainstream films, but they played the main characters in this little film. A simple cop film that tells the story of two NYPD detectives who were hired to solve a case of stolen handbag in the Paris. So they pack their bags and land in the city of love. It's like a vacation for them, but they aware of their assignment and they begin working on their own way to find the thief. The rest is the small adventures filled with the decent comedies.The film was short and there were no mega stunt sequences. Not because it was a small budget film, but it was aimed to keep everything simple. More like in the real society, but improvised it by adding some comedies. I don't know Luis Guzman ever did a lead role, but this is first of his for me and I enjoyed his part along with his partner. The praise must go to the effort, not for the overall film. Because I knew it won't be another 'Bad Boys', so I braced myself to watch it and then I found it better. It is a lot better than many craps from the recent time, so it is worth watching at once, but don't force yourself.6/10
