SYNOPSIS: 

A murdered victim is found at the border of Ontario and Quebec, Canada. David Bouchard (Patrick Huard), an ill disciplined detective from Quebec has to work with Ontario's by-the-book detective, Martin Ward (Colm Feore) to solve the case.

I can say that the story is rather typical - buddy cops with different personalities trying to solve a murder - but the humor, the chemistry between the leads and the action make this movie an awesome watch. 

Seriously, I love this movie mainly because of the humor. It's not over the top, there is a minimal number of slapstick which I appreciate and the lines are rather well written. 

The main actors, Patrick Huard and Colm Feore do a good job in portraying their characters. Most of the laughs come from their dynamite chemistry. Besides that, the side characters are also good. For instance, Suzie, David's ex wife, played by Lucie Laurier. I like her performance. The coroner played by Louis-José Houde is also great. 

 

Apart from that, the action parts are wonderful. They are believable enough and not too over the top. 

As a conclusion, Bon Cop Bad Cop follows every cliche in the book but still manage to entertain thanks to the chemistry between characters, the humor and action. Awesome flick.

4 out of 5 stars.
