Humbersi The first must-see film of the year.
Lollivan It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
Ella-May O'Brien Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.
Justina The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
bugsmoran29 Terrence Hill and Bud Spencer made it big on the American screen with their performances as Trinity and Bambino in the two popular spaghetti westerns in the early Seventies. Unfortunately their other comic adventure movies never seemed to go over big on this side of the pond. I only discovered Mr. Hill and Mr. Spencer other film work when I was working overseas in Saudi Arabia. I have recently been watching more of their movies that are available on youtube and are dubbed in English. "Crime Busters" is one of the very best. The violence is very much in the vein of the Three Stooges and the Marx Brothers; slapstick all the way and without any blood. I highly recommend this film top my fellow Americans who may not be aware of the marvelous movies of these two Italian actors: Terrence Hill and Bud Spencer.
srobi280 This movie is tons of fun. Spencer and Hill meet each other in the harbor while looking for work. They decide to rob a store, and see two cops in there. They tell the cops that they want to be cops as well. Afterwards, they run into a police station and tell them again that they want to be cops. So they get hired.My favorite bad guy is the Indian chief sitting on the hood of the pickup truck. The football fighting scene was a riot as well. The whole thing is filled with laughs, and is one of my favorite Spencer and Hill movies.Watch it when you have some free time, or when you are in a bad mood. It will cheer you up.
gridoon Silly slapstick comedy is both sluggish and childish (let's just say that it's less realistic than the average "Police Academy" sequel), but Terence Hill, with his acrobatic skills and use of everyday objects in the fight scenes, comes through as a somewhat slower version of Jackie Chan, and Bud Spencer's reactions and mutterings earn some laughs. (**)
Jaap_Zuurkool Matt Kirby and Wilbur Walsh meet each other when looking for a job in a harbor. They are both rejected in a rude way. This leads to the first slapstick fightscene.Because they still don't have a job they decide to go for the quick money by robbing a supermarket. In a snackbar they meet two cops. Just for fun Matt and Wilbur tell that they want to be a cop. By mistake they run into a policestation when intending to rob the supermarket. The same two cops are there and get Matt and Wilbur a job by the police. Being a cop they meet al sorts of criminals, but when they are never fighting when they are in their uniform.The red line in the movie is a man from Shanghai. First Matt meets him in the harbor, later they run into him when being a cop. Then they accidently meet his family, and at the end they solve a case where he was part of.It's an easy to watch and funny movie, just for a rainy sunday afternoon.
