Pretty Good
Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.
The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.
Nice views of Paris and attractive French ladies, but there was basically zero story here. Enough visual candy for one viewing though.
A same person writes/directs/produces a movie ....nothing good can come out of that. The "story": 2 New York detective looking for a stolen handbag in Paris. How much more lame can it get? Well, just have 2 short,fat & ugly man mingle with tall & good looking women in tight dresses in Paris. Often this movie looks like a tourist commercial video (bicycling on empty streets) or a women fashion show (everybody wears tight evening dresses all the time) Could not stand this "masterpiece" for more than 20 minutes, try it and see how long you will last ?
This is not a film that everybody was looking forward. This something an unexpected film from the new crew, but the actors were somewhat known to us. They are mostly supporting cast from the mainstream films, but they played the main characters in this little film. A simple cop film that tells the story of two NYPD detectives who were hired to solve a case of stolen handbag in the Paris. So they pack their bags and land in the city of love. It's like a vacation for them, but they aware of their assignment and they begin working on their own way to find the thief. The rest is the small adventures filled with the decent comedies.The film was short and there were no mega stunt sequences. Not because it was a small budget film, but it was aimed to keep everything simple. More like in the real society, but improvised it by adding some comedies. I don't know Luis Guzman ever did a lead role, but this is first of his for me and I enjoyed his part along with his partner. The praise must go to the effort, not for the overall film. Because I knew it won't be another 'Bad Boys', so I braced myself to watch it and then I found it better. It is a lot better than many craps from the recent time, so it is worth watching at once, but don't force yourself.6/10
It's not the worse movie I ever saw, but had the potential to be so much better.You see the title of the movie and the first thing you think is that this is a fish out of water comedy. Knowing who Guzman is I was expecting The New York raised Latino to have a culture clash in Paris' hi style scene, but the movie really does nothing with that idea.He plays a cop who gets hired by a Fashion company based in France to track down a fancy hang bag prototype that was stolen and is being held for ransom.Guzman with Edgar Garcia play partners and brother-in-laws in a buddy cop style that is obvious, but not done well. It was a badly done cop movie as the cops really did no cop work. The little that they did was really little for the movie as a whole.What the movie does do is point out why we love Luis Guzman as a supporting character in pictures. Guzman being the lead character in this movie doesn't seem to be interesting, yet it works and makes the film watchable, but not great. It's in comparison with another Latino supporting character actor, Danny Trejo when he did Machete, it's everything you like about him as a supporting actor.And shout out to Edgar Garcia who was a good fit for Guzman in the buddy cop relationship but the movie should have gave them more to do if that's the genre they are trying to achieve.So overall, the movie makes little sense, but it will be fun and enjoyable if you like Guzman.
