Synopsis:
Master jewel thief Miles Logan (Martin Lawrence, Life, Bad Boys) has a big problem. A $20 million problem. Recently released from prison for the botched heist of a huge diamond, he`s anxious to retrieve the hot rock which he hid at a construction site two years earlier.

Unfortunately, his hiding place is now at the center of a recently completed high-security police precinct. Posing as a detective, and partnered with straight-laced rookie Carlson (Luke Wilson, Home Fries, Bottle Rocket), Miles utilizes his criminal expertise and inadvertently rises up the ranks, winning the respect of his fellow "boys in blue".

Powered by a hot soundtrack with music by Jay-Z, Foxy Brown and Tyrese featuring Heavy D, Blue Streak is a hilarious action-comedy from director Les Mayfield (Flubber, Encino Man).

Special DVD bonus: Includes hot music videos by Jay-Z, Tyrese featuring Heavy D, and So Plush featuring Ja Rule!

Ok.. you like "Beverly Hills Cop", right.. were a little dissapointed with its last outing. Well like me you will have been looking for a good action cop film with plenty of comedy for ages. Blue Streak is that film. The premise is very clever and original for a change, the cast are all well suited to thier parts and take simular roles to the Beverly Hills crew. Martin laurence is on top form with some absolute corking lines and visual gags. The pace has been well set with highs and lows in the right places. If you enjoy a good comedy caper with lots of well choreographed action sequences and some of best suited music, this is the film for you.
Great picture quality and superb sound round off a must have DVD. ROfu
