a5c7b9f00b An LA detective is murdered because she has microfilm with the recipe to make cocaine cookies. A &quot;Lethal Weapon&quot; style cop team tries to find and stop the fiends before they can dope the nation by distributing their wares via the &quot;Wilderness Girls&quot; cookie drive. In this parody of buddy-cop comedies, General Curtis Mortars and Mr. Jigsaw are lacing Wilderness Girls cookies with cocaine. It&#39;s up to Sergeants Jack Colt and Wes Luger,wellBilly York informant Becker, to put a stop to this. As several others have pointed out - this is not a very good film. However, it&#39;s still pretty darn funny. It&#39;s a B-version spoof film, but I still laughed more than on average.<br/><br/>When you don&#39;t have terribly gifted writers and/or actors you have to rely on throwing inmany jokespossible in order to try and get more laughs. And a surprising amount of them are actually very funny (albeit extremely silly, and stupid).<br/><br/>Favourite bit: when Estevez and Jackson are driving in their car and suddenly realize they&#39;re being followed - by two guys wearing ski masks, sitting in the backseat of the car.<br/><br/>If you know what you&#39;re getting yourself into, Loaded Weapon is an underrated little gem. If nothing else, it&#39;s fun to see Sam L. Jackson before he became a &quot;serious&quot; actor. [7/10] After reading the other comments about this movie, I have decided that there is a simple test to know if you will like this movie and can waste 3 minutes instead of 83 minutes if this is not your type of movie. Okay. When you sit down and watch this movie, watch the first two scenes and if you think these are amusing continue to watch and laugh, if not then STOP watching this film. The opening scenes of this movie are by far the strongest of the film, so if you hate those, it only goes downhill from there, BUT…<br/><br/>The rest of us will continue to watch this movie and find out that it is one of the dumbest, but funniest movies ever created. Sure, you can call bits and pieces of this film &quot;lame&quot; if you desire, but I still find it funny. If you got to witness the &quot;added scenes&quot; that were in the NBC version aired a couple years back, then you can complain harder, because those were the scenes that were pasted back in off the cutting room floor and it showed. They brought down the film, but some of the hard cuts in the &quot;released&quot; movie were explained, because awful jokes that were thrown into scenes were just cut right out. This is not a complaint, because the video/cable version stays at a fast pace and you have to be paying attention to catch all of the jokes.<br/><br/>This movie is like &quot;Hot Shots&quot; in that it is just done for stupidity and laughs and nothing else. Yes, there is a softball plot thrown in there so that the jokes have a direction, but it is just done for fun. Tim Curry, William Shatner, Emilio Estevez, and most of the rest of the cast look like they are having the time of their lives filming this, which only adds to this film&#39;s greatness.<br/><br/>Remember, take the test to see if this film is right for you.
