Underclassman

I’ve seen a *lot* of fish-out-of-water buddy cop movies and am even quite fond of the genre, but I honestly can’t remember the last time I was less invested in the outcome of a movie, and I feel my sentiments are echoed by the cast and production team! This is a tiresomely dull and lead-footed effort, with Cannon proving resolutely that he lacks the chops to carry a film by himself, and a B-grade supporting cast are not in a secure enough position to render assistance, with the lone exception of Marin who does his level best to provide a spark. Bonneville proves his resemblance to Jim Broadbent is as striking as ever, and his prominent billing leads me to believe there may have been a legitimate mix-up!
