Just got done watching Reno 911 the movie.

If you haven't seen the TV show it may not make much sense. If you have seen the TV show then you already understand that they are stupid people and shouldn't carry a gun. It is their personalities and how they interact that makes it funny. Nothing is realistic and that is more than ok because it is a spoof of the Cops TV show. The writing can be very funny at times but it isn't consistent.

There are a lot of guest appearances. You will see people from 40 Year Old Virgin and Anchor Man. The Rock. Pee Wee Hermen (I think). Etc.

The story is a bit better / more interesting than I expected (as a whole idea). The execution is about what I expected. That is to say it is a TV episode but longer, in Miami and not bleeped/blurred.

The ending should have been erased. I think they put it in for filler because it would be too short otherwise. Seriously it dropped from a 5.5 out of 10 to a 4 out of 10 because of the crap ending.

Bottom line: If the movie is shown on Comedy Central and you like the TV show then watch it. Don't watch it in the theater. Probably shouldn't rent it unless you have nothing better available.

High notes include:

Boobs Whale parts Simultaneous Masturbation scene The Scarface character
