• the language might be mature, but don't be misled: There's nothing here that rises above the level of the playground

  by Jeannette Catsoulis [NY Times ]

• the dynamic between these two khaki-uniformed dudes is of the familiar oil-and-water variety

  by Justin Chang [LA Times ]

• Owen Wilson-like charm to breathe some life into the thin story by wringing as much as possible out of the naive cop newbie. Pena, usually a safe, funny bet, fails to register as a streetwise rooster with a horny streak

  by Linda Barnard [Toronto Star ]

• it's a convoluted mess that zig-zags all over the map. On the plus side, there are enough jokes that connect to keep you along for the ride

  by Edward Douglas [NY Daily News ]

• CHIPS sure is goofy, it falls flat compared to other buddy-cop comedies in its genre, relying too heavily on unpleasant sex jokes (often revolving around gay panic) and a nonsensical crime plot

  Review rate : C- by Devan Coggan [Entertainment Weekly ]

• a miserable movie, an exercise in stupidity that takes whatever nostalgia one had for the late-1970s television series - this assumes anyone actually had nostalgia for it - and beats it to death on a bed of idiocy

  by Bill Goodykoontz [Arizona Republic ]
