Review of Starsky & Hutch

6/10
The usual suspects
21 July 2004
"Starsky & Hutch" is a lukewarm comedy knock-off of the 70's hit buddy cop TV series of the same name. Those who remember the original Soul/Glaser duo will likely enjoy this flick more than those who don't as the film relies heavily on nostalgic blast from the past music, disco dancing, period slang, 70's clothing and hair styles, S&H TV lampooning, etc. Regardless, "S&H 2004" is watchable and even recommendable though off par for both Stiller and Wilson. Worth a look as no brainer small screen comedy entertainment about a couple of wacky plain clothes detectives who can't seem to do anything right but still manage to save the day in the end. (B-)
