Super Troopers

Broken Lizard, a comedy troupe formed by former students of Colgate University, wrote and star in the enjoyably lightweight comedy SUPER TROOPERS. They play state troopers who preside over a quiet stretch of highway in Vermont. The low crime rate allows them time to pursue their own interests--mostly playing elaborate pranks on each other and on the hapless speeders they stop. Their captain, O'Hagan (Brian Cox), asks them to settle down for a while, because the governor (an amusing cameo by TV's former WONDER WOMAN, Lynda Carter) is thinking of cutting off their funding and turning their precious highway over to the jurisdiction of the hated local cops, headed by the sneaky Chief Grady (Daniel Von Bargen). The wild and not very bright troops are unable to stay out of trouble, so they'll only keep their jobs if they somehow manage to crack a big drug case. Director Jay Chandrasekhar (who also stars as the smartest trooper, Thorny) does a great job of keeping things quick and light, and the easy camaraderie of the Broken Lizard troupe gives even the grossest humor in the film an appealingly playful quality, harkening back to the innocent days of movies like STRIPES.

- Broken Lizard, an American troupe, display their lack of comic skills while wasting the talents of rather better actors in this lazy, crude comedy.

  Love the 'cat game'
  
  Lets face it, it was never going to be the best comedy ever made but it is very funny, very well written and well performed. Not a lot is too predictable, ... read more »

  Predictable plot, unpredictable characters.
  
  This film could have been lost with the wrong cast. It would take a lot to convince me to forgive Jay Chandrasekhar for smashing up all those Dodge Chargers ... read more »
