  This is a brilliant buddy cop film from my native province of Quebec. With a great cast and a good story, this is a very funny film that has plenty of effective laughs that make this film better than most Hollywood-esque buddy cop films. This is a must see film for viewers who enjoy a witty, original and well acted comedy. There is plenty of laugh out loud moments here, and the plot is very engaging as well. The performances of the two lead actors make this film much better, and they have some good on-screen chemistry. This film is well done and the cast pull off something good. Bon Cop, Bad Cop is always engaging due to a fine story, and it has some effective humor. At times there are parts of the film that don't work, luckily the performances are what keeps this film good and fun. This has got to be one of the best Canadian films in quite some time. With some great performances and good jokes, Bon Cop, Bad Cop is a great comedy that is a must see for film fans. The story of the film is engaging and I really enjoyed Colm Feore in this one. Patrick Huard brought a terrific sarcasm quality to his role, and just the differences between the two characters was what made this film so good. If you're looking for a great comedy, then give this one a shot. This is a very unique twist on the buddy cop genre, and one worth watching. This is a different type of comedy in the genre, and it only has been equalled by The Other Guys and 21 Jump Street.

  Patrick Huard's brainchild is shot in an exciting visual style and overcomes its satirical if admittedly corny plot - part Se7en, part Slap Shot - about two reluctant partner cops (one from Ontario, one Quebecois) who must track down the man masterminding revenge on all those… More
  Patrick Huard's brainchild is shot in an exciting visual style and overcomes its satirical if admittedly corny plot - part Se7en, part Slap Shot - about two reluctant partner cops (one from Ontario, one Quebecois) who must track down the man masterminding revenge on all those Americans ruining Canada's lifeblood: hockey. A bit formulaic in some aspects, completely novel in others, and fun from beginning to end; the satire strikes a bit too close to its target - the Maple Leafs and Canadiens have been filled in for by the "Loyalists" and "Patriotes" - but this film makes a good commentary on Canadian language politics while providing plenty of laughs and a few chills along the way. Good flick.

  An explosive and wickedly entertaining thriller. Great non-stop fun that packs plenty of action, suspense and outragiously funny laughs. A teriffic buddy cop comedy. Colm Feore and Patrick Huard have fantastic chemistry. An irresistable team. Brilliant, wild and fantastic. Stylish, cool and hilarious. What a great movie. You'll be laughing so hard you will remember why you go to the movies in the first place. Completely and utterly enjoyable from start to finish. Full of wild and funny moments pluse some compelling character development. An original, fresh and classic action-comedy in the tradition of Rush Hour.

  When a rather unorthodox crime touches the border between Ontario and Quebec, police squads in each province are forced to work together. Two cops - as the title suggests, one 'bad' and the other 'good'. Throughout the movie they learn to annoy the crap out of each other, watch each other get beat up, learn a few things from one another and somehow even how to co-operate together. In between all that the dialogue is just severely hilarious, showing the obvious differences between the two. However, as the movie progresses each one seems to adopt a bit of the other's style. Cinematography prepares us for a crazy 'cut to the chase' kind of movie, sometimes even eerie at times whereas hearing the two bicker back and forth at each other...you become completely engrossed in the story. Over-the-top ludicrous but damn clever. Was most enjoyable!

  [font=Century Gothic]In "Bon Cop, Bad Cop," the body of Benoit Brisset(Andre Robitaille) is found on the border of Ontario and Quebec and neither police force wants anything to do with it. So, they do the only reasonable thing and split responsibilities(only fair considering the body is in two pieces), assigning Toronto detective Martin Ward(a miscast Colm Feore) who is aiming for a desk job and Montreal detective David Bouchard(Patrick Huard) to partner together to solve the case. Their first lead is a helicopter pilot named Luc Therrien(Sylvain Marcel).[/font] [font=Century Gothic][/font] [font=Century Gothic]"Bon Cop, Bad Cop" feels like a pilot for a television series and not a good one at that with little sympathy given to the victims. To be fair, there have been so many other cop buddy movies and television series over the years that "Life on Mars" played about the only card left. With sexism as old as time itself, the only original thing about this one is the Anglo-French conflict.(I kind of like the idea of living in a bilingual country, myself.) Ward is uptight while Bouchard plays fast and freely with the rules. At least, they are both divorced. And it is a shame because there are few enough movies that have hockey as a major plot point, especially with the playoffs right around the corner, that a little creativity would have gone a long way.[/font]

  Everyone is raving about this film and its uniqueness blah blah blah. There was a childrens' movie that came out years ago with the English/French dynamic called the Million Dollar Hockey Puck so this film isn't particularly groundbreaking. The fact of the matter is that this movie is CBC silly and quite frankly not very good.

  Your typical buddy cop picture, which follows the formula religiously. The added "twist" is that it's Canadian, so there are some new jokes, but you'll only get them if you grew up in Canada. Entertaining but nothing special.

  This movie is at once distinctly Canadian and at the same time one of the most American things I have ever seen. The movie is about hockey, Ontario/Quebec relations and yet it is ultimately just a buddy cop shoot'em up. Lots of fun and in the grand American style makes almost no sense with lots of bullets car chases and explosions.

  Bon Cop, Bad Cop Movie. This reminds me of a lot of the Turkish horror films I've seen recently, trying to emulate American genre flicks and having a strange non-American feel to it. Chase scenes cut to odd rock music, peculiar lighting and archetypal characters that, while being tweaked slightly to fit Canadian culture, ring false in the fact that they neither fit the archetype or anyone in reality. Pacing is non existent and characters act on things the audience knows nothing about (eg. Finding the two people trapped in a trunk in a parking garage). Plus, I'm afraid that a lot of the Canadian culture in this film is based more on how we are perceived by other countries than based in anything truly cultural. It's sad when our Country's culture is dictated by what others think of us. However, I guess what truly makes this film "Canadian" is (I won't go the easy route and say "because it sucks") it's pigheaded resolve not to entertain the way an American film might, since that would be perceived as stooping down to their level.

Et puis, comme y faut être bilingue ici, ben... laissez-moi dire que c'est un bon divertissement comme on l'aime, malgré le scénario vraiment fragmenté qui a perdu de sa cohérence probablement après être sorti la salle de montage...
