I rented this on Friday night.
I'm a rather large Kevin Smith fan but I was a little disappointed in this movie. I know he didn't write it - so it's technically not a "Kevin Smith" film..
I just found Tracey Morgan really annoying, which is crazy because I'm a big fan of his SNL days and 30 Rock.
Anyone else underwhelmed by this film?

Most everyone was. Kevin Smith threw a royal hissy fit about it.

I thought it was okay. IMO it's decent for a rent, but certainly not something that needs to be added to anyone's collection.

It didn't look like much from the commercial-one of those "Oh he said a bunch of funny stuff in the trailer" things that gets them everytime.
I don't like Tracey Morgan and felt Bruce Willis was above this

In one of the commercials - it states. "New York City's toughest cop gets a partner"..then at the start of the film, Morgan and Willis are celebrating their 9 years together as a team.

Nothing with Tracy Morgan is worth watching.

I liked it more than I thought I would. If it was anyone other than Bruce Willis in the starring role though, I would have probably thought it was mediocre since he's one of my favorite actors. Tracy Morgan I thought was ok in it, he was annoying at times, more so in the beginning parts of the movie. Seann William Scott definetely stole some scenes in it though since he was hilarious in the scenes he was in.

Sweet lord, I feel like the only person who likes Tracy Morgan at this point. I know I'm not...but really, he's funny as hell to me.
In any case, I haven't seen this movie, but I want to.

I think Tracy Morgan's usually hillarious, but this movie was horrible. And Kevin Smith's last half-way decent movie was Clerks 2.

Yeah the minute you said Tracey Morgan this movie became a no watch on my list. I second this. I just cannot stand his acting and I don't find him funny at all.

It had some funny moments, but felt cliched and very by-the-numbers. Tracy Morgan is hardly the worst thing about it, but he doesn't help it rise either.
The Blu-Ray looks to have decent bonus features, so I might rent that.

It seems like a movie that seemed funnier on paper.

Its sad to see this one Kevin Smith interview on YouTube (its like 11 parts) where hes talking about the movie, back when it was planned to be called "A Couple of Dicks". He was so excited about it and just the whole process that led up to it. I can't imagine he was happy with how everything turned out, but he hasn't said anything about it on SModcast...

I just laugh now at how, when it was in it's theatrical run, it would do nothing but advertise Tracy Morgan, with Bruce Willis just looking pissed.
Now that it's on InDemand, Tracy says NOTHING, is in the background, and everything is Bruce Willis and Sean William Scott.
