An out and out police farce–compared to the original TV series–Starsky & Hutch is plain funny. Not smart and funny like, say, a Woody Allen or Coen Brothers film but more in line with the better National Lampoon movies. Director/co-writer Todd Phillips (Road Trip, Old School) is showing increasing skill and improving timing. Ben Stiller gets a role and a director that keeps his more obnoxious habits in check and Owen Wilson is smooth and smart.
