This juvenile cop comedy resembles a cruder version of the Police Academy films. Written and performed by the five-man comedy group Broken Lizard - who are unknown on these shores and are likely to remain that way - this puerile affair concerns a bunch of idiotic Vermont State Troopers who enjoy nothing more than tormenting drivers with bizarre, unfunny pranks. There is a vague plot about the rivalry between the Troopers and the local police, but it's really just a series of sketches in which the lawmen behave like members of a particularly dim fraternity. Despite the odd giggle, the cast and script show little sign of comic flair, and even Brian Cox, as the Troopers' humourless boss, has his talents squandered. Come back Steve Guttenberg - all is forgiven.

Five bored, occasionally high and always ineffective Vermont state troopers must prove their worth to the governor or lose their jobs. After stumbling on a drug ring, they plan to make a bust, but a rival police force is out to steal the glory.
