	Author	Review
United States	Scott Foundas Variety	"A lazy and listless buddy-cop action-comedy that fades from memory as quickly as its generic title."	NEG
United States	Kyle Smith New York Post	"There's nothing much funny in it at all. (...) Rating: ★ (out of four)"	NEG
United States	Justin Lowe The Hollywood Reporter	"Turns out to be something like a comic riff on 'Training Day'. Leaning more toward Hart's brand of slightly raunchy humor rather than Ice Cube's equally popular family-friendly farel."	NEU
United States	Neil Genzlinger The New York Times	"The plot twists are easily guessed, and the film goes on for one predicament too long, but there are some good laughs."	NEU
United States	Peter Travers Rolling Stone	"A collection of moldy gags that director Tim Story tries to polish. (...) Rating: ★ (out of four)"	NEG
