Blue Streak Storyline

Miles Logan is a jewel thief. Things go awry while he’s stealing a huge diamond in downtown L.A.: a thief, Deacon, tries a double-cross, the police arrive, and Miles is arrested, but not before he hides the jewel in an air duct of a building under construction. Two years later, he’s out of prison and he heads for the site: it’s L.A.’s new police headquarters! Posing as a reassigned cop, Miles gets into the building, but before he can recover the swag, he’s partnered with a naive detective and sent out to investigate burglaries. With Deacon on his trail, he must recover the diamond, keep the cops fooled, and do a few good deeds as a detective who can think like a criminal.

Blue Streak Movie Reviews

great vehicle for Martin Lawrence

This movie really delivers in the laughter department and succeeds as a vehicle for star Martin Lawrence. In the film, Lawrence plays a thief who steals a diamond and manages to hide it in a building structure before being caught and sent to prison for two years. Upon his release, he finds that the building is now a police station, and he has to impersonate a cop to get in and claim his prize. That is where the real fun stuff begins. The movie is funny.

*** out of ****

If only this was Dave Chappelle’s rather than Martin Lawrence’s movie

Miles Logan (Martin Lawrence) is a jewel thief who hits the big score, a diamond worth $17 million. However his fellow thief Deacon (Peter Greene) doesn’t want to share. Deacon escapes from the cops, but Miles is caught. Before being caught, he stashes the diamond in the vent of an unfinished building next door. Little did he know, that building would become an LAPD police station. Two years later, he gets out of prison, and tries to retrieve the loot from right under the police’s nose.

Martin Lawrence is allowed to go off without restraint, and it’s all the worst for it. He’s not a likable guy when he does that. The story is basically stupid that requires the viewers not to think. The big question is whether it’s funny. The answer is no. His antic gets tiresome. And pairing him up with a clueless Luke Wilson doesn’t improve anything. They have no chemistry due to their characters. The funniest part of the movie is Dave Chappelle. I rather have this as a Dave Chappelle movie.

Good cop/bad cop

And it all can be viewed as one person actually … and while I do like Martin Lawrence overall (seems like a cool and funny Dude), there are quite a few scenes where he is quite annoying. Not to mention breaks any form of reality or strain of it. Then again, you might not care of how ridiculous certain things are and just enjoy the comedy and action parts of it. But towards the end when this turns quite dark, maybe even you may not be too sure about the tone the movie has … because it’s switching a lot.

But the actors in this really help anyone who’s watching this to enjoy it quite a bit. Go ahead and if you don’t mind its many flaws and really stretches when it comes to logical human behavior (not to mention the complete laughable attitude of a certain precinct) … fun is ahead and waiting for you
