GuySolis - 13 May 2024 Another conformists flick I give this movie a 3 because it did have a few good one liners but it failed in other ways. I have to admit, I just saw Michael Pena in "A Million Miles Away" and he was excellent in it. He elevated himself as well as his nationality while telling a true story. I highly recommend watching "A Million Miles Away" as a palate cleanser for "CHiPS" because you'll need it. I see this all the time. Great actors doing great performances then sinking so low it's a shock as with Matthew McConoughey in "Killer Joe"...Wow...talk about raunchy! Pena's lines were disgusting and I just have to wonder something about Hollywood..are actors obligated to take roles that make them look like low life's?
Moviedude90 - 26 November 2022 I wanted to hate it... ...but it had a REALLY good storyline. I never saw the original Chips series, but I can attest this had plenty of plot twists for a 'low budget' cop flick. It had all the comedy of Starsky and Hutch, but the complex storyline and script that that flick didn't have.
Not to mention, Dax Shepard killed the role-I usually can't stand him, but haven't actually seen him in a movie since I could remember. And he nailed it, through and through.
If you're a motorcycle fan, this flick had GREAT riding and chase scenes with really talented riders. It looks like Dax knows his way around the bike too as proven by scenes showing his face clearly while riding. The 'villain' also was played by a solid actor giving it a lot of credibility in my book.
All in all it was a solid 7-8/10, but I gave it a 9 to outweigh the ridiculously low rating imo.
