Bon Cop Bon Movie

A bunch of us went to see 'Bon Cop Bad Cop' at the theatre on Friday night. This is a film out of Montreal which is one of a kind due to its bilingual story line. Basically, a murdered man is found on the sign at the Ontario and Quebec border, requiring the cooperation of the two police forces in order to solve the crime. Thus, a Toronto straight-arrow cop is teamed with a Montreal off-the-records kind of cop. Both are bilingual and there is probably more french than english spoken, but I stopped noticing the subtitles after awhile and didn't miss (most) of the humour. It's a really funny movie and I laughed a lot more than I expected to. They played up on most of the Canadian stereotypes and French/English tensions in a really entertaining way. Plus, aside from the comedic part, it's a movie with lots of action and is actually a bit gory sometimes. In any case, I really enjoyed it and I would recommend renting it if you are looking for something to watch one evening.
