Plot: Torrente is a lazy, rude, drunkard, sexist, racist, extreme-right-wing Madrid cop; a despicable character who only cares about himself. He lives in a decrepit slum with his wheelchair-bound father, wh...( read more read more... )om he treats quite badly. One day, a new family of neighbours move in, and the sexy younger daughter, Amparito, catches his eye, so he becomes a friend of Rafi, her nerdy brother, to get closer to her. At the same time, he discovers that a band of drug traffickers are operating in a nearby chinese restaurant; he knows that if he cracks this case, it could make him regain the status he lost within the police department; but the only people he can count on to help him are Rafi and his equally nerdy friends.

    La película en sí no puede ser más mala. Santiago Segura desperdicia su talento en este éxito de público. Tópica hasta la saciedad.

    I have to say, this is another guilty pleasure, Santiago Segura is very funny as an anti-hero cop and the black humor is well manage.

    I thought I'd hate this movie...even though Santiago Segura is almost always a joy in any comedic role he has, Torrente looked pretty dumb. But he pulled it off again, directorial debut and starring as the protagonist. Yes, it's one of those stupid and offensive comedies, but in a good way, that doesn't annoy you but rather keeps ya hooked to see what comes next!

    Too bad the Torrente sequels were't as funny... :-/

    Lysande historia om en intelligensbefriad, korrupt och drogberoende polis sparkad från den spanska poliskåren som ger sken av att ha kvar sin anställning för att försörja sig på bla mutor men lyckas komma något stort på spåret. Biografvältare i Spanien! Sexistisk men lysande humor som inte liknar något annat!

    Hahaha! A perfect parody of a big truth: the spanish retrograd society!

    So funny Santiago Segura!

    _remember: Catalonia is not Spain!_
