Watch trailer

Starring Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson in the title roles, this kitschy tongue-in cheek action comedy is based on the popular 1970s cop show of the same name. Ken "Hutch" Hutchinson (Wilson) and Dave Starsky (Stiller) are a tough pair of plain-clothes cops who drive a red and white Ford Torino and solve cases with the assistance of their informant, Huggy Bear (Snoop Dogg). While investigating their latest case, the duo realize that the culprit is none other than Reese Feldman (Vince Vaughn), the criminal involved in their first bust. Starsky & Hutch also features appearance by Juliette Lewis, Will Ferrell, and Matt Walsh, who, along with Snoop Dogg and Vaughn, all had roles in director Todd Phillips' last film, Old School. ~ Matthew Tobey, All Movie Guide

"Over the weekend, Wanted had a 100% fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes.com. It’s since gone down to 81% (at the time of this writing — and with top critics it’s down to 67%), though that’s still pretty good for a movie that initially looked like just another Matrix knockoff. But will the good reviews make for great box office? Last night, while viewing the latest trailer in a theater with some friends, I mentioned that Wanted was receiving great reviews. Nobody believed me at first, and then they didn’t care; they still thought it looked terrible. Good reviews rarely help an action movie, and bad reviews rarely deter audiences from seeing them. However, if we look at the top 5 most critically acclaimed action movies, it’s clear that people do often prefer a good action film to a bad one. The next 5, on the other hand… The Lord of the Rings: Return of the King (2003) Rotten Tomatoes’ “T-Meter” score: 94% (top critics: 98%) All Time Domestic Box Office Rank: #9 ($377 million) Sam ...

"By Tricia Olszewski Dave Starsky and Ken “Hutch” Hutchinson aren’t in love—they just like each other a whole bunch. Though you may get a different idea from the musical cues in Starsky & Hutch, the big-screen incarnation of the ’70s buddy-cop show: “Can’t Smile Without You” opens the film, “We’ve Only Just Begun” plays when the partners have a spat, and even “Don’t Give Up on Us Baby”—original Hutch David Soul’s soft-rock hit—makes an appearance when the 2004 Hutch (Owen Wilson) sweetly serenades a couple of lovely ladies...while looking straight at Starsky (Ben Stiller). But who can blame him? You can care about the story involving Reese Feldman (Vince Vaughn), a drug dealer who peddles an undetectable “new coke,” if you want to. But it’s more or less just a way to kill time in between scenes of Stiller, decked in poufy hair and a thick belted cardigan, brea ... " [More]
