“Have you ever fired your gun up in the air and gone ‘aaaargh’?”
Cannily scheduled to tie in with the release of Hot Fuzz, this is mondo macho slo- mo homo bondo from the heyday of the buddy action movie, with Keanu and the Swizzle facing off on surfboards, jumping out of planes and gurning at each other in the rain. It also features, as Simon Pegg pointed out on Film 2007 a couple of weeks ago, ‘one of the finest foot chases in cinema’ (though it faces stiff competition from the building site sequence in Casino Royale). Busey, too, always value for money.
