Featured review
This seems to have divided opinion. Is that the mark of a good movie or a terrible one?
You can look at it two ways - as a fantasy cop-buddy movie, and/or as a racial/social allegory. The allegory is laid on with a trowel. You don't need your subtlety glasses and if you ever thought allegory was too subtle for you, this will absolutely prove you wrong.
The fantasy aspect is a little strange. An interesting premise but given the scenario, how come we end up with a world exactly like ours? So dedicated fantasy fans are off to a poor start. Much, much suspension of disbelief required.
As for cliches - they must have scoured the internet to see how many they could squeeze into one movie!
Having said all that, if you can accept all those cliches and shortcomings and just go with the flow, it won't be the worst movie you ever see. Probably.
But it definitely won't be in your Top Ten.
