Showtime


A veteran LAPD detective is forced to take part in a reality-TV show by his boss, to make ammends for generating some bad press in the past. To make matters worse, he is teamed with a young, loud black cop, more interested in being an actor than a cop. The cherry on the top is when he is forced to take some acting lessons. All this gets in the way of his current task, tracking down how the underworld obtained an excetionally powerful gun. The film sets out as a spoof of the reality-TV shows but soon degenerates into yet another buddy-cop-action movie, with few laughs.
