How about watching a belly-achingly funny and action-packed buddy cop flick this weekend? Oh, yeah! They are fun to watch! We have just the right movie for you! We are talking about Adam McKay’s The Other Guys (2010), starring Mark Wahlberg and Will Ferrell. The film is now available on Netflix.
Two mismatched detectives, Gamble (Ferrell), a paperwork-loving accountant, and Hoitz (Wahlberg), a hotheaded cop, are thrown to the sidelines while superstar cops Danson (Dwayne Johnson) and Highsmith (Samuel L. Jackson) steal the spotlight. When a seemingly minor fraud case turns into a major conspiracy, Gamble and Hoitz get their chance to prove themselves. But their lack of experience and clashing personalities lead to hilarious chaos as they try to earn the respect they deserve.
The chemistry between Wahlberg and Ferrell is the soul of The Other Guys. Their attempts to work together lead to awkward situations and plenty of LOL moments. The movie is packed with witty dialogue, slapstick humor, and unexpected gags. Apart from these, Michael Keaton also looks in fine form as Captain Gene Mauch. Overall, it is a must-watch.
The Other Guys has a fresh critic score of 78% on Rotten Tomatoes, based on over 200 reviews. It stars Mark Wahlberg, Will Ferrell, Dwayne Johnson, Samuel L. Jackson, Eva Mendes, Michael Keaton, Steve Coogan, Ray Stevenson, Bobby Cannavale, Ben Schwartz, and more. It is streaming on Netflix. Watch it now!
