Incannerax What a waste of my time!!!
Laikals The greatest movie ever made..!
Organnall Too much about the plot just didn't add up, the writing was bad, some of the scenes were cringey and awkward,
Twilightfa Watch something else. There are very few redeeming qualities to this film.
Ornlu Wolfjarl This film is such an amateurish attempt at film-making. The acting is bad, and not because of the actors but because of the script and the direction. The editing is shoddy at best. The film keeps going off to tangents that end up being irrelevant. The script is filled with clichés, but instead of making an exploitation out of them, they are just presented dried and predictable. There's too many pointless fist fights and not enough plot. It's a flick centering on catching a serial killer. We are never shown clearly what the serial killer wants, beyond a generic "he just hates this people". It's supposed to be a comedy but it rarely makes any sort of joke beyond some childish slapstick or ironic twist (e.g. this character only swears in french, but at then end he swears in English).It's like the people who made this agreed on an idea, but never agreed on what kind of film it was supposed to be. Or they sat around a table writing down what they thought would be cool scenes and just mixed them all together in a mess. It's disjointed and without hardly any satisfying conclusions to all the story lines it's trying to follow.You'll have some fun, it's not the worst thing ever made, but you'll likely get bored halfway. If you do get bored but want to stick through to the end, my advice is don't. Just forget you ever saw it and go watch something more worthwhile.
Python Hyena Bon Cop, Bad Cop (2006): Dir: Eric Canuel / Cast: Colm Feore, Patrick Huard, Sylvain Marcel, Pierre Lebeau, Lucie Laurier: Hilarious cop comedy about background. The result is one of the greatest comedies to come out of Canada. Colm Feore plays Martin Ward, a cop from Toronto and Patrick Huard plays David Bouchard from Quebec. Both are investigating the same crime due to the crime scene jurisdiction. Murder victims feature a tattoo and are involved with hockey. This leads to numerous plot turns interlocked with hilarious dialogue. Director Eric Canuel does a great job shifting humour along with both languages used in the film. Feore plays the straight man by the book but at home he is seen as ordinary even after his attempts to appear hip to his son. Huard is reckless in his actions often causing near death situations yet he has a wife and child. There are a strong host of supporting characters including Ward's sister whom Bouchard is found in bed with after Ward is attacked in his own home. The plot grows even more tense when Bouchard's daughter is kidnapped. Well made crime comedy with tremendous action combined with on target and twisted sense of humour particularly a scene where the two cops accidentally get high. Strong theme regarding language and background result in one of the best and funniest crime comedies of the decade. Score: 10 / 10
hn_zu-834-804827 Indeed the best movie ever! I never seen any comedy film as sophisticated and creative as this one. The linguistic comedy is excellent, and also add a new variety as opposed to the usual English lame jokes found in comedy films nowadays. The acting of the two primary roles is well performed, almost flawlessly. Furthermore, the storyline is well planned and is executed with careful precision by the actors. Simply put, the film is an excellent blend of thriller and comedy in which the two genres don't discredit the film while running simultaneously. This movie is the watershed for Canadian films in the future.On a side note, I suggest Canada should make its own Hollywood (pioneered by Canadians (do some research)), but this time in Canada. This new Hollywood should be the centre of high quality movies (in terms of plot, acting, setting, etc) in which Bon Cop Bad Cop is the epitome of platinum standard movies.A must watch movie for people from anywhere across the globe!
aristofanis I was born and raised in Montreal and for one thing, it is a city that is far more diverse with people who are far more funny and intelligent than these caricatures. The humour here is contrived and most of the comic scenes are designed for 12 year olds. The whole thing seems to be a glossy TV production for tourists or for language students who should be introduced to the french-Canadian lingo and the rivalry between Quebec and Ontario. Thus the jokes are unintelligible to someone outside Canada and too cliché for those who are Canadian. The hostility shown by people towards the 'other' province in this movie isn't funny and it really does not reflect anything close to reality since Canada is known for its tolerant society. Most people in Montreal do understand English and more than 1/3 of them are anglophones! (Yes, French Canadians are not the only inhabitants of Montreal) while the name Bouchard is very standard and recognizable throughout the country. Nothing noteworthy as far as direction and photography either. I would classify this movie as very light entertainment.
