Why was this comedy spoof on 70s and 80s cop shows so awesome? It was because it was more subtle, yet effective than similar heavy slapstick spoofs. It was a laugh a minute. This movie totally got the corny phony machoism of these tv shows I grew up to the "t". Don't get me wrong. I like CHIPs and Miami Vice, but these film does such a great job getting down the square comments by the officers, the overdramaticization, and the cool, witticism that made these shows so much fun, and yet also very silly. The whole movie used every cliche from the standard 70s and 80s cop show. A lot of reviewers seem to have missed how well written this movie was, and because it was not outrageous, like say the Ace Ventura films, it was even more effective at satire. And the nearly clone theme, a parody of Jan Hammer's Miami Vice theme was also great.
