Saw Starsky and Hutch last night.

Wow, talk about a trip down memory lane.

It won't win any Oscars but it was amusing, enough to pay Matinee prices for.

In many ways, those familiar with the original will think this is a spoof, with Ben Stiller taking a wacky/weird take on Starsky and Snoop Dog doing a REALLY laid back Huggy Bear.

And for fans of the original, there's a surprise at the end that it took the kids in the audience awhile to get.


Starsky and Hutch, 3/5 stars just for sillyness.

Owen Wilson and Ben Stiller, it's an unbeatable combination. Haven't seen Starksy and Hutch yet but I can't wait, Owen is God.

I thought the movie was great. I can see several sequels made after this. I think it'll make at LEAST 10 million this weekend.

I really can't stand Ben Stiller, normally, but I thought he did a great job.

I give the movie 4/5 stars.

It should have been called Stiller and Owen. Now don't get me wrong I liked the movie, but really these two guys work well together and I enjoy seing them in comedies.

I saw this movie friday night. I thought it was excellent. Owen and Stiller were a great comedic duo. I laughed quite a bit. What really made the rest of the movie was the supporting cast - Will Ferrell, Snoop Dogg, and the Korean guy. Good movie.

Just downloaded it great movie love Stiller and Wilson, Ferrell, just added to the mix of great characters, Vince Vaughn may be one of the most diverse actors, in a long time. And finally Snoop Dogg, good job he is one of the few rappers that I like as an actor, Ice Cube being the only other.

I agree with Lebell. Somewhat uneven, certainly worth matinee price.

i thought the movie was amusing. for those that were brought up with the original starsky and hutch, were the main characters in the new one true to the old show? was it a comedy?

It was by no means the funniest movie ever, but it is something worth watching.

lol i saw it during a matinee today (monday) and thought it was pretty good. the cast of old school reunion was hilarious, even the singer from old school was there; that was too funny.

I loved Will Farrell's small part in the movie; it was HI-LAIR-EE-OUS! Man he had me rolling!

Anyways yeah it was pretty good; not like an extremely good movie but worth a matinee at least, like others have said. Owen and Stiller work well together.

I have to agree, it was a great matinee. I thoroughly enjoyed Will Ferrel, as I always do.

I thought it was a decent movie. A good amount of laughs. Im not sure that ill buy it when it comes out on DVD though, that will depend on the extras.

mattevil

it was just ok. there was some good jokes but no real laugh out loud moments. That ending really beat you over the head too even though i appreciated the cameo.
