Super Troopers (2001)

Five Vermont state troopers, avid pranksters with a knack for screwing up, try to save their jobs and out-do the local police department by solving a crime. (IMDb)

A standard comedy in a lot of ways, with its male-dominated cast, mediocre plot, and juvenile sexual humour that accounts for most of the dud gags (see the German couple, bear sex). That said, there’s more laugh-out-loud scenes than not (see Farva at the burger joint–“don’t spit in that cop’s burger”), and the lovably corrupt (“but our shenanigans are cheeky and fun!”) crew of cops (sorry, I mean troopers) have excellent comedic chemistry and thus rarely fail to entertain throughout.

7/10 (Good)
