Middling action comedy featuring the ageing duo

Warning: Spoilers
Miami Supercops is a broad action comedy featuring the popular pairing of Terence Hill and Bud Spencer in their final collaboration with director Bruno Corbucci. This film isn't one of their finest moments, but it is a brisk enough comedy film, just perhaps not quite as funny as others made by the stars. The film is once again set in Florida (as the title would suggest) so expect lots of expansive, sun-bleached scenery.

Hill and Spencer play FBI agents (rather unlikely, I have to say) who go in search for a criminal gang responsible for stealing millions of dollars. Along the way there's time for some cheesy romance and lots of comic interplay between the characters, contrasting the gruff and gigantic Spencer with the handsome, almost fey, Hill. The action outweighs the comedy in this one, but it's all done rather cheaply and doesn't really impress as much as it should. The funniest part of the film is the warehouse shoot-out at the climax, where they save all the best gags and physical humour.
