The two have pretty good chemistry working and fighting together, which keeps some interest; but those expecting something stimulating
out of this buddy movie won't find it.
A sordid tale that resembles many noir classic films from the forties and fifties, where its protagonists are police partners based on the
duality of buddy movies but without the comedy.
However, from the arrival of Rey onwards, the film attempts to juxtapose into this dark universe
something of the buddy movie, albeit, in a much less frivolous manner than in pictures such as Midnight Run and 48 Hours.
A whole lot of plot ensues — an entertaining
mix of buddy movie, road trip, Clash of the Titans, archetypal quest and a coming - of - age tale about misfits making their way despite, or because of, absent parents.
