Review: The Other Guys

The Other Guys is the latest from Adam McKay and Will Ferrell and it serves as a great send up of the buddy cop genre with a consistently funny pacing and many flashes of brilliance along the way. Allen Gamble and Terry Hoitz are not the guys, that title is held by Detectives Highsmith and […]

Now Playing Review – The Other Guys
