Bon film, could be better
11 August 2006
I really enjoy the police/action/comedy genre. Bon cop/ Bad cop wants to be a Canadian version of the American "Lethal Weapon", "Die hard" & "Beverly Hills cop". And to a certain degree it succeeds. The makers of this films manage to entertain us with shaper witty lines. The characters are interesting and compelling. The dialogues are hilarious. Action sequences, while fewer and lower budgeted are quite thrilling form the most part. Huard & Feore are just as entertaining to watch as Gibson & Glover (lethal weapon)

Wha doesn't work in this film? The plot. It seems to me that the writers knew police work from what they saw in the lethal weapons films. The villain is boring and silly.

is it a good film, to some degree yes. Should you see it? Definitively! While it has many faults. It's still an entertaining picture.

Since it looks like there will be a sequel. I hope that they either get better writers or at least develop a better plot/villain to foil Bouchard and Ward!
