Double Whammy

CriticsCritics: 35
AudienceAudience: 5.6

A disgraced detective with a painful back and a damaged reputation struggles through a series of personal and professional problems. His encounters with a seductive chiropractor, an uneasy partner, eccentric screenwriters, and trouble surrounding his apartment building pull him into an offbeat urban adventure.

My take

You may enjoy this if you like offbeat crime comedies with dark humor, eccentric characters, and an unconventional structure; Not for you if you prefer polished, tightly plotted mysteries or traditional cop films.
