Dynamixor The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

2freensel I saw this movie before reading any reviews, and I thought it was very funny. I was very surprised to see the overwhelmingly negative reviews this film received from critics.

Griff Lees Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

Candida It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

betty dalton Tight *ss white cop from Paris is forced to work together with a cheery black cop from the suburbs. Lots of racial jokes. Lots of situations in which the white privileged cop gets made fun of. Sort of a french version of "Lethal Weapon". Little less explosive. More refined. The story really doesnt matter, it is just an excuse to keep making jokes about the conflicts the two cops get into. Just as was the case with Lethal Weapon.Acting is great. Omar Sy is well known by now since he performed so excellently a man who cared for an invalid in "Untouchables". He has got great charm. And the white cop played by Laurent Lafitte is a famous comedy actor in France as well, who also has made the leap to some international movie succes. This movie however is about France's class struggle, between the poor people in the suburbs and the rich people in downtown Paris. All in good cheer though. Contineous jokes. Some funny chases. Just a great buddy cop movie, the French way...

carbuff I just watched this to see how well the French could do ripping off your run-of-the-mill American black cop/white cop buddy movie, a la (see that's French) "48 hours", "Lethal weapon", and such. Sad to say, it is a disappointment. I had really high hopes that the French would bring something new to the genre, most hopefully some witty sophistication, but instead this film is slow, lifeless, disjointed, and just plain doesn't work. The French humor is beyond subtle, it's hiding better than Waldo. The two "buddy" cops never develop any realistic chemistry, and the movie can't seem to figure out what it wants to be or say. The film clearly seems to be trying to start a franchise, in the manner of the successful aforementioned American movies of this kind, but with an opening like this, it's not surprising that that plan never got off of the ground. Very hard for me to believe that the French have made a worse movie than your typical major Hollywood studio, but somehow they have. Too much wine or cheese or something, I don't know.

kosmasp Not the best buddy movie I've seen (2 Guns comes to mind of late), but still a very enjoyable effort. Different people connecting sort of. And because this is french/European, it does not skip on the nudity. Something a US remake probably would do, especially considering what target audience they'd want to reach with it.One of our main actors is on his way to produce a lot of movies, especially since his very successful turn in "Intouchables" (english title). A very good movie, but also something that might come back to haunt him. A friend of mine didn't like his effort here and thinks he will be eaten and chewed off in a matter of months. Doing movies no one will want to see and delivering performances that are not good at all. That's a grim view, almost as grim as the bad guys that have to be fought in this movie. If you look upon it as a small little comedy, you might be able to enjoy yourself. If you try to compare it to "Intouchables", you won't!

chEEpx An average Cop-Comedy (think Lethal Weapon in France with younger cops). Personally i will remember the Movie only for its sexism. Can in no way live up to the great Intouchables, also there is the same actor in both movies. IMDb should be glad that someone is ready to write a review of this movie and not bother about telling me that i should write ten lines. I mean seriously why ten lines, but maybe it. Is enough if a press backspace and don't have to fill all lines. Maybe if i was a native English speaker it wouldn't pose such a problem, but i didn't like the movie nor this rule. So to come to a conclusion: This movie is OK for television, but don't go in the movie and spend money on this. You surely would regret it.
