Good , But It Is Overrated By Some

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

Hartnett is another one of those guys who is all face and no talent. He's not off-putting like a DiCaprio type but he's definitely there just for his looks. While it's not a straight-up chick flick, it's pretty close. This has some action, decent eye candy, some great stars, about 30% good tunes AND the jokes aren't all stale but they mostly come up short of the quirkiness they're selling here. I can watch this every 5 years or so.

Hollywood Homicide is a mediocre movie with an average storyline that I felt had the opportunity of being very different but simply didn't and a cast that could have delivered more.The set up of a buddy cop comedy in LA with Harrison Ford and Josh Hartnett easily could have worked but simply didn't,they completely lacked any necessary chemistry for their parts.I always love seeing Harrison Ford on screen,but was very disappointed by his performance in this,he simply couldn't do comedy,he delivered pretty much every line very poorly and I feel like he slowly lost more and more interest in his role throughout.There were certainly a handful of parts that made me laugh,but there wasn't enough and there was nothing aside from that,the action sequences are unimpressive,and we are never really given any reason to truly care for these characters.It has its moments,but Hollywood Homicide is mostly a poorly written and poorly acted comedy that I would not recommend. Two detectives investigate the murder of a popular rap group. Best Performance: Josh Hartnett Worst Performance: Lena Olin

It's Hollywood of the present day and a couple of guys come into a club with Uzis and start shooting it up. Several members of a rap group are slain. As this is a world that doesn't open up to law enforcement in general, solving this massacre is going to be tough.But put on this Hollywood Homicide are a pair of detective partners of different generations both of whom have different other life careers. Harrison Ford has delved deeply into those get rich quick real estate schemes you see on infomercial television. He's got himself a $700,000.00 lemon on his hands right now and even LAPD's Internal Affairs is looking into him. As for young Josh Hartnett, son of a cop killed in the line of duty, he'd really like to be an actor. He's also into new wave type religion that really drives Internal Affairs nuts when he's questioned.The club owner Isaiah Washington who employs some LAPD cops as his security is not terribly cooperative, maybe preferring to deal with it in house in every sense of the word. It's not going to be easy for Ford and Hartnett who seem to be dealing with all of this in their spare time.It's all the usual kind of stuff you expect in modern police comedies or dramas and this is a bit of both. I'd like to single out soul singer Gladys Knight who plays the mother of a survivor who does in fact put Hartnett and Ford on the right track. And his fans will be somewhat taken aback by Lou Diamond Phillips who has a cameo appearance as an undercover detective in full drag. Make up and wardrobe really did right by Lou. Fans of the two lead actors should enjoy Hollywood Homicide.

The story of two cops who would rather be in real estate full time and the other an aspiring actor desperately trying to get people to see him as Stanley Kowalski in "A Streetcar Named Desire."Ironically, the two are great police officers. Harrison Ford as the part-time real estate agent and Josh Harnett, as the cop-aspiring actor are quite appealing in this film. Lolita Davidovich is a tramp in the know and as a change of pace, Lena Olin delivers a comic performance as a funny seer.The last 15-20 minutes or so are phenomenal with a spectacular car chase scene through Beverly Hills. You know this is a comedy as no one gets killed in the mayhem.The ending scene where Harnett goes Stanley in a theater production, with everyone going wrong is hilarious at best.A pleasant change for Harrison Ford and it actually works to much of a degree.
