Blue Streak (1999) **
Directed by Les Mayfield. With Martin Lawrence, Luke Wilson and David Chapelle. A robber (Lawrence) pretends to be a cop in order to recover his loot. This action comedy has a lot going for it - it's fast, funny, and often quite exciting. And yet, like most such Hollywood flicks, it fails to make any impression whatsoever. It's a cinematic equivalent of cotton candy - totally insignificant.
