QUICK TAKE:
Comedy: A group of previously fired misfits are rehired as Vermont State troopers in order to help facilitate the transfer of a border town from Canada over to the U.S.
PLOT:
Having been previously fired for an incident that went badly involving actor Fred Savage, a small group of former Vermont State troopers -- Arcot "Thorny" Ramathorn (JAY CHANDRASEKHAR), Jeff Foster (PAUL SOTER), MacIntyre "Mac" Womack (STEVE LEMME), Robert "Rabbit" Roto (ERIK STOLHANSKE), and Rodney "Rod" Farva (KEVIN HEFFERNAN) -- work odd jobs to make ends meet. But when it's discovered that a small chunk of land in Canada actually belongs to the U.S., the state's Governor (LYNDA CARTER) reinstates the men and their commander, Captain John O'Hagen (BRIAN COX), as full-fledged troopers to help facilitate the land transfer.

That includes a small town run by former hockey star turned mayor Guy Le Franc (ROB LOWE), with cultural attaché Genevieve Aubois (EMMANUELLE CHRIQUI) present to help maintain relations between the locals and the country of which they'll soon find themselves citizens. That doesn't sit well with them or a trio of Canadian Mounties -- Bellefuille (TYLER LABINE), Archambault (WILL SASSO) and Podien (HAYES MACARTHUR) -- who aren't particularly happy they're about to be transferred up north and clearly don't like the American troopers who are going to take their place.

As those Mounties try to undermine the Americans, the troopers, when not trying to retaliate against them. resort to their old behavior of pulling pranks and generally acting like idiots.

WILL KIDS WANT TO SEE IT?
Some teens might be interested, especially if they're fans of the first film.
WHY THE MPAA RATED IT: R
For crude sexual content and language throughout, drug material and some graphic nudity.


I have subscribed to ScreenIt for more than a decade. I check in every week to take advantage of their amazing services. Not only does their site provide a glimpse of exactly what content a movie offers, I've found the “Our Take” reviews and ratings for each movie to be right on the money every single time. I've referred dozens of friends to this service because my #1 resource for deciding whether or not to show a movie to my kids, or to see one myself, is ScreenIt.com!

I signed up to get Screen It weekly reviews a long time ago, when my kids were young and I wanted to know more about movies before we went to a theater or rented. Now one child is in law school, other in undergraduate, and I still read the weekly Screen Its! It helps me know what my husband and I want to see or rent, and what to have waiting at home that we all will enjoy when my "kids" come home. I depend on Screen It reviews. They usually just present the facts and let me decide if the movie is appropriate or of interest for my family and me. Thank you for providing that service, Screen It!

I have 4 children who are now in college. I signed up for Screen It when my children were pre-teenagers. Often my children would ask to see a movie with a friend and I wished I could preview the movie prior to giving permission. A friend told me about ScreenIt.com and I found it to be the next best thing to previewing a movie. The amount of violence, sexual content, or language were always concerns for me and my husband as we raised innocent kids with morals. We constantly fought the peer pressure our kids received to see films that in our opinion were questionable. With the evidence we received at Screen It, our kids couldn't even fight us when we felt a film may have been inappropriate for them to watch. Thank you, Screen It. Continue to make this helpful service available to everyone, but especially the young parents.

Screenit.com is an amazing resource for parents, educators, church groups or anyone who wants to make an informed decision whether a movie is suitable for their viewing. The reviews and content descriptions are so detailed I am mystified how the reviewers can put them together.

I love screen It! I don't know what I would do without it. It is well worth the membership. Before we take our son to the movies we check it out on screen it first. Thank you SO much for making it. Keep up the good work & keep 'em coming!!!
