When two of America's brightest comedians get together, you'd expect something better than this buddy-buddy cop movie that mostly limps from one overly forced, unfunny moment to another. Damon Wayans plays an undercover cop who teams up with small-time crook Adam Sandler when they are both forced into taking on drugs baron James Caan. There's genuine chemistry between the two leads, but it's never fully explored by director Ernest Dickerson, except to see if he can find a titter in the geologically buried possibility that the boys' attraction to each other might be vaguely tinged in pink. Although there are a couple of genuinely hilarious, laugh-out-loud moments, the constant crudity, badly put together slapstick violence and mostly lame jokes stay in the memory longer than the laughs. Strictly for fans of Sandler in his gross-out days.
