Ultra-Kinetic and Overstuffed but Movie Buffs will Have Fun

Rating: 8/10 (14 January 2015)

Overlong, Overcooked, Over the Top, and Overstuffed Spoof of a Multitude of Genres (mostly Buddy Cop Action) that is Creative Filmmaking Pushed to the Limits of Endurance on Just About Every Level. The Movie is So Saturated with Characters and the Story is So Saturated with Plot that the Thing is Ready to Burst from the Get-Go.
This is Good Because there is Much Here to Grab Hold, and this is Bad Because there is So Much to Grab Hold that You Lose Your Grip Constantly. It Wanders from Genre to Genre at the Drop of a Hyper-Edit and Pings Here and There So Much that it Becomes Breathless and by the Time the Two Hour Run is Over, the Feeling is that You have been Run Over.
It is Entertaining and Delivers Bang for the Buck for Sure. Just be Prepared for an Onslaught of Ideas and Jokes Coming Rapid Fire with Little Time to Absorb and Little Time to Laugh. It is So Energetic it Gets Lost in its Own Excess More than Once.
There is Enough Clever Material Here for a Couple of Pictures but the Team Behind "Shaun of the Dead" (2004) Seems Driven by Their Success and Ramp It Up to Overdrive and the Whole Thing Seems to be in a Hurry. Capture that Zeitgeist Once More Before it Gets Away.
Overall, Fans of the Actors and Director are Likely to Love this Bombastic, Good Looking Movie. Casual Moviegoers are Going to Miss Half the Jokes and be Weary by the Mid-Point. Worth a Watch because of the Creativity and Rattling Presentation. A Movie for Movie-Buffs and Seems to Tap in to the Vibration of the Youth Culture and the Films it Parodies.
