Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

This film is such an amateurish attempt at film-making. The acting is bad, and not because of the actors but because of the script and the direction. The editing is shoddy at best. The film keeps going off to tangents that end up being irrelevant. The script is filled with clichés, but instead of making an exploitation out of them, they are just presented dried and predictable. There's too many pointless fist fights and not enough plot. It's a flick centering on catching a serial killer. We are never shown clearly what the serial killer wants, beyond a generic "he just hates this people". It's supposed to be a comedy but it rarely makes any sort of joke beyond some childish slapstick or ironic twist (e.g. this character only swears in french, but at then end he swears in English).It's like the people who made this agreed on an idea, but never agreed on what kind of film it was supposed to be. Or they sat around a table writing down what they thought would be cool scenes and just mixed them all together in a mess. It's disjointed and without hardly any satisfying conclusions to all the story lines it's trying to follow.You'll have some fun, it's not the worst thing ever made, but you'll likely get bored halfway. If you do get bored but want to stick through to the end, my advice is don't. Just forget you ever saw it and go watch something more worthwhile.

This Canadian movie was probably shown very little in the USA but I read that it was very popular in Canada. My public library never bought it but I found the DVD on Netflix.The movie is dark because we see the results of several grizzly murders. But there is an overall comedic approach as two cops must become unlikely partners to try and solve the murders and capture the murderer.Why do they have to cooperate? Because the murder that starts things off has the body draped over the large sign that separates Canadian regions, so in fact the body is half in each district.The movie has a hockey theme, a disillusioned Canadian fan is upset because Canadian teams are being sold and moved outside Canada. One specifically was rumored to being moved to Houston, Texas. {big Grin}Anyway a few scenes are a bit too absurd to really enjoy, but overall the writing and acting are good and whether they ever solve the crimes is an afterthought. But they do, eventually.

This is the most mediocre B Movie I have seen in a long while. Now I know why Canadian Productions can't have any commercial success. If this is the best we can come up with let's wrap it up. It's not worth the taxpayers money. I found the movie a typical Quebec propaganda, sexist where they present females as cheap trash and it is full of warped sense of humor of the Quebecers. Even the violence they've thrown in is not believable and lacks finesse. The plot lines are flat, style and structure lacking with no fresh ideas. The concept would have been great if 15 minutes into the film the Ontario Cop, Colm Fiore character did not revert to the French language and adapt to the French culture. From that point on the differences dissipated. This movie is not bilingual. It is in French, with English subtitles and occasionally some English sentences and swear words are thrown in. You could hear more English dialogue in Bollywood movies. If they really tapped into the differences of both cultures, the idiosyncrasies and obsessions, the wonderfully quirky and off-the wall character interactions, and I don't mean just throwing suspects in the trunk, it could have been a very interesting movie.

Quebeckers seems to love this movie... I guess because they get the cool guy in the flick.... however the plot, acting and pretty much everything else is third rate. I was expecting a deeper perspective on the whole Quebec/Ontario situation and Canadian culture in general but all you get is over the top stereotypical characters and really lame jokes.Canadians are so desperate for bilingualism and the whole Quebec in Canada thing to succeed they will laud even the most pathetic of movies that has a semblance of us "all just getting along"It seems we're doomed from getting a successful bilingual commercial movie that happens not to suck.
