Résumés(1)
D'un côté il y a l'agent spécial du FBI, Sarah Ashburn, une enquêtrice rigoureuse et méthodique dont la réputation la précède tant pour son excellence que son arrogance démesurée. De l'autre l'agent de police de Boston, Shannon Mullins, reconnue pour son fort tempérament et son vocabulaire fleuri. L'une comme l'autre, n'ont jamais eu de partenaire dans le travail... ni vraiment d'amis. Ainsi, lorsque ces deux représentantes de la loi radicalement opposées sont obligées de faire équipe pour arrêter un baron de la drogue sans pitié, elles se retrouvent à devoir lutter non seulement contre un puissant syndicat du crime, mais aussi et surtout contre l'envie de s'entretuer.

At times, it's quite funny, but for heaven's sake, why did it have to be so long? Melissa is absolutely unbearable at the beginning, and Sandra only sometimes, but overall, Sandra is probably the more pleasant of the two. It's clear from the start how it's going to end. The only advantage the film has is that you'll eventually probably get into the game anyway, even though those unbearably long "funny" scenes will keep dragging you down. But I did laugh.

This is exactly the movie I needed. A pleasant comedy that might lack originality, but it offers a bunch of first-class scenes in return, which nearly made me piss my pants. Sandra and Melissa are an absolutely divine duo. I’m glad that it finally occurred to someone to create a female cop duo. Melissa delivers one great line after another and Sandra slowly joins her. The whole movie is a never-ending fit of laughter which will also please action-scene lovers. I must say that I really don’t know what the local two-star reviewers expected from this film. Am I really supposed to be ashamed for laughing at this movie, or should I concern myself with how cookie-cutter it is? Am I really supposed to worry about all this? I think the purpose of this comedy is primarily to relax, and that was successful in my case. The four stars are absolutely well-deserved.

An enjoyable comedy with an unexpectedly good central couple. It is true that the subject does not abound in originality, but the interplay of the uptight, ambitious Sandra Bullock and the shabbily vulgar Melissa McCarthy saves a lot. Especially when they both get into really funny situations. Moreover, it is nice to see once again a new American comedy in which no bodily fluids, with the exception of a bit of (judiciously used) blood, linger on the viewer.
