It was 1995. One of the summer days, when the sun is shining, the air is nice and everything is cool.. seems to be cool. But not always what's visible can be the real thing. So don't be deceived my friend. Because fate had its own way to turn around anything anytime anywhere..At 3 P.M I turned my TV on. And it was a foolish move which I regretted it till now... It was a national holiday and I expected an American old musical with all the fun, the babies, the good numbers and the sexy dancing. But all what I've got is an outstanding torture, a forever injured soul, and one hell of a bad memory. Yes, it was the unforgettable execration : (The Boys In Blue) ! Can anybody stand the British comedy?? Not me of course ! Can anybody bear the pain of this movie in particular ?? I didn't find one !! Anyway, I wanted a lovable musical and I had a smash in the guts ! The memory is still killing me and it was very painful indeed, so no wonder at all when you'll find it in my list of the worst movies ever, at the top of it, as the least thing to do ! After that, I cut short my relationship with our national TV for good, not because its dumb censorship, its poor film library, nor idiotic programs...but also because its own selections that became too stupid to stand just like this lousy movie itself.

Cannon and Ball is excellent funny men from time ago. How I laugh at their gurnery. One of them (Ball) went to the jungle and my how me make me laugh whilst watching this old film. He is truly great in the veins of other greats like Albert Stepped toe and Billy Crystal. GThe laughs never stop as policemen pratfalling whilst capturing the bad figures- I love their their sense of justice and vengeance, combined with funny end of your peers laughter. The absolute volume of laughs in this film truly makes me bleed. They are great atists painting funny funny moments. I love the ability they have to turn the bureaucratic work of a policemen into a fun filled antic hunt! The greatest laugh I had was when the jungle man fell down a pothole. That was agreed by all to be their best. How I wish these two had many more films in these veins. I would have gone more if I was born when this film was made. All in all a great buy for family! PS they are robots.

This film is very funny and showed cannon and balls comic genius, 10/10. I think this should be re-released. There is some bad acting but the comic moments make up for it and bobby ball makes me laugh till i cry. I don't know how anyone who has seen this film could give it a bad comment.

I remember going to see this as a kid and at the time (i was 11) I loved it. Having seen it again recently I'm sorry to say that I again loved it. I know it's a bad film but there's something about it (or that period) that fills me with nostalgia and I suppose makes me smile. Ask a Policeman is of course a classic and far superior, however I'm afraid i like them both.....sorry
