CRITIC REVIEWS
Lew Irwin
Critics are apparently willing to write off Starsky & Hutch as a pleasant enough attempt by Hollywood to capitalize on nostalgia and the drawing power of stars Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson. On ABC's Good Morning America, Joel Siegel remarked: I know it's not a very good movie. You know how some scripts could use a rewrite? This one could use a write. I counted eight jokes in the whole film. And they're not that funny. But it got to me anyway. Roger Ebert in the Chicago Sun-Times agrees. It's a surprisingly funny movie, the best of the 1970s recycling jobs, he writes. Elvis Mitchell in the New York Times calls it flaky fun. Jonathan Foreman in the New York Post describes it as an easygoing, if unevenly inspired homage-cum-parody. And Ty Burr in the Boston Globe says it all makes for an enjoyably stupid night at the movies. But John Anderson in Newsday is not amused, calling it, a clich?-ridden, uncharming and tiresome exercise in recycled humor. And Eleanor Ringel Gillespie in the Atlanta Journal finds it all to be an interminable -- and terminally lazy -- effort. And Mark Caro in the Chicago Tribune grumbles, This is a profoundly unambitious movie, a '70s cop show spoof that aims to provoke a few giggles, and that's about it.
