Starsky and Hutch (2004)

Starsky and Hutch Cast: Ben Stiller, Owen Wilson, Snoop Dogg, Fred Williamson, Vince Vaughn, Juliette Lewis, Amy Smart, Carmen Electra.

Directed by Todd Phillips.

Story: A comedy take on the 70s Starsky and Hutch TV series.

Running Time: 101 minutes.

Certificate: 15

 

Something tells me this is going to be a short review! The trailer tells it all, it's Starsky and Hutch with tongue stapled to cheek. The writing is witty, the performances are all sufficiently entertaining, there are car stunts in the famous Ford Gran Torino, and it's got Amy Smart in it. What more could you want for a fiver?

Torino and the guys I guess you want to know why you might not like it ... well if you push me, Vince Vaughn doesn't really have the weight to be a super-villain - but it's a comedy so that helps in a funny kind of way. Ben Stiller (an afroed Starsky) and Owen Wilson (the blond Hutch) put in their usual comic turns, so if you haven't enjoyed their previous outings then you probably won't think much of this either. And Snoopy Woofy what's-his-face is less than convincing as Huggy Bear, but again that just adds to the mickey-taking fun. The only thing I would like to see changed is the golden opportunity to show some boobies that they shied away from. Boobies are good, film-makers take note. I'm serious.

It's all good harmless fun and is a thoroughly enjoyable 101 minutes - plus the end credits are accompanied by out-takes, which is a great way to ensure you leave the movie theatre laughing. It won't make your top 10, but will be worth a second viewing when it comes on TV.

 

I enjoyed this film: 4/5

I think the average moviegoer will enjoy it: 4/5

Testosterone Satisfaction Rating: 2/5 Cool car chases and some drug-taking.

To enjoy this film you should be: A fan of light comedy movies. It'll help if you're under 50.
