My Daily Roti Movie Reviews - The Other Guys

Another week another movie, this time it's The Other Guys starring Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg, two of my least hated Hollywood guys along with short appearances of Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson and Samuel L. Jackson, again two of my least hated guys in Hollywood. So 4 of my least hated Hollywood stars in one movie, sounds promising. But is it?
  
    Fortunately, this movie didn't turn out to be shit. The opening sequence with Dwayne and Sam doing the cop chase thing was good. In fact I think every scene with these two guys was a good laugh. Basically the movie is about two over enthusiastic cops, feeding of the fame they're getting, always taking big risks and making headlines. However the risk taking was too much when they jumped off a building and killed themselves. Since the city is now in need of new heroes, the other cops in the department, aka The Other Guys are looking at taking up their places. Nerd cop that prefers paperwork and actionman teams up and tries to solve case. The movie did provide some good laughs and fun. However, personally I think it would be better if the characters Dwayne and Sam were playing didn't die so early, well of course they had to but I just wish they didn't. Not a bad plot, good action, good humour and good fun to watch. A movie that you will most definitely enjoy but will eventually forget about in the near future.

My Roti Rating: 7/10 (nice roti but won't crave for more)
