Average comedy

Two cops love the same girl. She's a cop too. And she just loves one of the two. What complicates things is that the two guys are best buddies. How can you tell your best friend the truth when you know that it will destroy him?

This movie will probably be forgotten by the end of the year, but it was still a good way to spend a Saturday afternoon at the movie. There's some funny scenes and the acting is not too bad. I guess you could say it's a good popcorn movie.

Seen in Toronto, at the Royal Cinema, during Cinéfranco, on April 8th, 2006.

75/100 (**½)
