‘Super Troopers 3’ Review: Broken Lizard’s Cop Comedy Threequel Sticks to the Middle of the Road
The wacky Vermont highway patrolmen are back, and this time they’ve got to — yaaaawn — stop a wedding
After 25 years the new “Super Troopers” movie feels less like it needed to be made and more like a contrived excuse for a wellness check. We have no compelling reason to revisit the kooky Vermont highway patrolmen who pull high-concept pranks on speeding motorists. We’re just stopping by to make sure they’re still here and to see if they need anything. It turns out they do. They need funnier jokes.
The original “Super Troopers” was a low budget indie from a comedy troupe with something to prove, and they proved it. Broken Lizard took a bog-standard “slobs vs. snobs” story and made it funny again, with likable characters and a handful of inspired gags. There was nothing new about a silly cop movie except that Jay Chandrasekhar, Kevin Heffernan, Steve Lemme, Paul Soter and Erik Stolhanske hadn’t made one yet, and they did a solid job of it.
Super Troopers 3 review – misfiring cop comedy threequel
The return of the countryâs most incompetent police force fails to bring enough laughs or any real justification for its existence
Super Troopers occupies a sacred corner of the millennial DVD shelf, a goofy rebuttal to the endless procession of just-the-facts-maâam TV cops that reimagined Americaâs most mythologized authority figures as incompetent brats.
The original is a testament to Y2K friendship â the college comedy troupe Broken Lizard, after losing out on an MTV show to The State, pooled their money to make a scrappy indie that became a cult classic. It had Brian Cox gleefully playing against his capital-A Actor persona (a novelty for American audiences in 2001) and offering a glimpse of the Logan Roy fury he would later perfect on Succession, only with lines such as âIâll believe ya when me shit turns purple and smells like rainbow sherbet.â After generating more than $60m in post-release sales on a reported $3m budget, a film franchise was born.
