Gurlyndrobb While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

Joanna Mccarty Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

Billie Morin This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

Lela The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

oragex If it wasn't for the exact last five minutes - when the bad guy is catch/killed , I would have gave this a nice 7/10 and recommend it.It is not up to the Beverly Hills Cop entertainment level, but it was pleasant enough. Ford was excellent in the role, not the best character, but consistent and definitely up to the task, more than any other of his films since Indiana and SW. Josh Hartnett acting is decent and acceptable, so is the directing for most of the characters.Speaking of characters, the bad guys are all black rappers. Yep, 2003 Now why is this movie a disaster? Because exactly 5 min. before the end, someone took the film rolls , pile them up and started to hatch them up. The worst 'bad' guy is an horrible actor, the worst choice among otherwise some fine and lively characters in the movie. But the insult here is the final physical fight. I have never seen this other than in a Van Damme film (but much better acted). A final fight in the pure tradition of WWE with all the fake kicks, moans and stuff, all clearly visible and clearly played up. B series movies do this better.Oh, and a 70 million production cost for such type of film?

joelsmith190 I like crime thrillers. It's one of my favorite genres, though I haven't seen many good ones in the medium of film. Most of the time, I'm reading them, like some of Kellerman's or Grisham's. Most movie crime thrillers just seem to fizzle out, though there are some classics, if they tend to be critically panned. Yesterday, I watched Hollywood Homicide on Netflix and finished with mixed feelings.It promises to be both a comedy and a crime thriller, and it fails at both. There's maybe one point where I genuinely laughed because something funny happened, and about ten times where I just shook my head at the failed attempts at humor. The crime thriller aspect is ruined because there is literally zero mystery after about 10 minutes of the film when they literally show you who's the bad guy. Wow, you literally took away the entire point of crime thrillers: figuring out who done it and why. And the execution of telling you this is poor at best.The action is few and far between and isn't very well executed. The acting isn't all that great. It does have Harrison Ford as the leading character, but nor are there any other memorable names or does he do a great job himself. The characters are either bland or unlikeable. Harrison's is the best, and shows signs of potential. The dialogue is meh. There's some good stuff, iffy stuff, and deplorable stuff. There's even an uncomfortable and unnecessary sex scene (though it doesn't show anything, thankfully).So I wanted to like it, but the only piece of comedy comes in the first ten minutes, and the failed crime aspect kind of ruin this film. However, it does entertain for the rest of the film and didn't make me cringe much outside of the few failed attempts of humor. So it's not the worst thing, but it's a failed attempt at best. Hollywood Homicide gets a 5/10. Had it succeeded in either aspect it promises, it could've been a great film, but it just isn't great. It isn't good. It isn't decent. And it isn't even mediocre.

slightlymad22 It's not hard to see what attracted Harrison Ford to Hollywood Homicide, buddy cop movies if done well are usually successful, Josh Hartnett was on a role after 'Pearl Harbour', 'Black Hawk Down' and '40 days and 40 nights'. While Ford's last effort 'K-19 Widdowmaker' had flopped massively grossing only $65 million dollars World Wide off a $100 million dollar budget. You had to go back to the Robert Zemekis directed 'What Lies Beneath' with Michelle Pfeiffer in 2000 for his last hit. And in Hollywood 3 years can be a lifetime. The plot, which was ridiculous to follow at times. Two LAPD detectives played by Harrison Ford and Josh Hartnett investigate the murder of an up and coming rap band. In his spare time Ford moonlights as an real estate agent, Hartnett as a yoga instructor, but he really wants to be an actor, an spends a lot of time reciting 'A Streetcar Named Desire'There are scenes of action, car chases (more like Smokey & The Bandit than Bullit) chases on foot and shoot outs. In between there was loving making and some sentimental soul searching before the predictable finaleLou Diamond Phillips pops up, as does Martin Landau, Eric Idle Smokey Robinson, Robert Wagner and Gladys Knight. Ford remains watchable, as always, but these are not two of his better hours.

imdb-21622 I feel this movie is a bit in the vein of Get Shorty.It's a comic take on Hollywood and cop movies.I feel it just falls short of being as great of a movie as Get Shorty.For one thing, Harrison Ford's character is not that likable. His main schtick is trying to run real estate deals while solving a murder case. If we had some sympathy for him, this might work better.His partner is slightly more interesting, but also falls a bit flat in his role as a yoga loving, womanizing wannabe actor.That being said, the movie is good for some laughs. I found the interrogation scene pretty amusing. I found the final chase scene pretty amusing.Failing to find a better comedy on cable, this might be a possible choice for some mindless viewing.I should note that the plot is moderately complex, so you kind of have to pay attention at times IF you really want to understand the whole plot (I was surfing the internet while watching the movie, and missed some plot points.)
