Ryan und Justin sind mit dreißig immer noch erfolglos. Sie teilen sich in L.A. eine Wohnung. Ryan verdient Geld mit peinlichen Werbespots, Justin als mittelmäßiger Designer von Videospielen. Eine Party soll sie auf andere Gedanken bringen. Als Polizisten verkleidet machen sie sich daher auf den Weg zum vermeintlichen Kostümball. Ihre Uniform zeigt Wirkung: Männer lassen sich herumkommandieren, Frauen beginnen zu flirten. Die Möchtegern-Cops genießen ihr neues Leben, bis sie es mit russischen Gangstern zu tun haben. (ORF)

I’m glad that good American comedies can be made by people that I personally have no clue about. Like Jake Johnson and Damon Wayans Jr., who aren’t exactly familiar faces I’d see on TV a lot. Just like I don’t really know the director Luke Greenfield. The result was unparalleled. Two idiots have nothing to do and so they start to pretend they’re cops. It’s just as stupid as it sounds, but on the other hand, it’s a whole lot of fun.

Great! The humour is more situational, but maybe that suits me better. Great choice of actors, Damon Wayans is a similar fool as his brothers. Even though it's clichéd and only the idea is original, it's an incredibly funny movie and I rolled on the carpet laughing at least three times and played the scenes at least ten times to recover, that rarely happens to me!! I also enjoyed the great choice of music during the action or every funny scene and the excellent comedian Keegan-Michael Key, whom I only know from his five-minute short videos and that alone won me over to director Luke Greenfield for casting him in the film and giving him the opportunity to further his career. Anyone who hasn't laughed at this film is not human. Perfect stuff.

In the end, the comedy actually impressed me quite well, even though I expected it to be very bad, with a lot of overacting and not making much sense. It does make sense, even though the story is not particularly fascinating. However, it is well-executed and easily reaches an average level. The members of the Wayans family, when they're not overacting, entertain me quite a bit.
