**The Good**:

+ **Sandra Bullock** is well suited as a badass female FBI agent going undercover.
+ The chemistry between Bullock and **Benjamin Bratt** works.

The Bad:

- The whole movie is about a bunch of incompetent male cops messing around either making fun of or creepily stalking beautiful women and an overly obviously masculine female cop trying to learn how to be a lady.
- Bullock's performance turns awkward in several scenes and it's difficult to watch and enjoy her messing around.
- **Michael Caine** in a totally misplaced and awkward part. He does it well, as always, but it doesn't suit him at all.
- The dialogue is cringe-worthy, with terrible one-liners and jokes that always fall flat.
- The film forgets it's supposed to be a crime film and turns into a chick-flick and a guide on how to be a lady instead.
- Despite its romantic tendencies, it has no emotional impact or dramatic tension.
- I have nerve liked **William Shatner** outside of _Star Trek_ and this film is no exception. He "singing" is the worst thing of the entire movie.
- The script plays around with stereotypes and fails to break them.
- The finale is hilariously messy - in all the wrong ways.
- The entire movie is awkward and uncomfortable to watch; it's hopelessly dated in today's world and is neither a good comedy nor a good cop movie.

**Verdict**:
It's never funny and never exciting; this awkward and outdated comedy is an uncomfortable ride to sit through.
