It?s a classic, it?s one of the best buddy/cop movies ever, the formula has often been copied but has never been bettered. Arkin and Caan are brilliant together. Release it on DVD damn it!!
Terrific 70's crime/action/comedy. Has a little more teeth than what gets produced today.

Love this film!!! The predecessor to the Lethal Weapon films. Caan and Arkin are just as cool and funny as Riggs and Murtaugh. A must see if you love buddy cop films!
One of the funniest car chase scenes ever. James Caan and Alan Arkin are great together here. A buddy comedy before Lethal Weapon.
Long before cop buddy movies were popular there was these two crazy and zany cops who do everything wrong trying to get their man. The film has plenty of action and adventure, including running a car off a bridge and into an apartment building, while still being a good comedy movie.
James Caan is brilliant in this film, as well as Alan Arkin. Truly a fun movie.
This board looks lonely. Be the first to talk about "Freebie and the Bean" !
