An odious cop comedy with a "fag" angle, this has to be one of the most offensive gay-themed films ever made. O'Neal plays a straight detective who teams up with effeminate, in-the-closet desk cop Hurt to go undercover as gay lovers to investigate a gay serial killer. Told to "live in their neighborhood, eat in their restaurants and shop in their stores," the film begins to indulge itself with every conceivable homophobic stereotype. Dressed entirely in pink and lilac, Hurt is seen as a scared, helpless femme while O'Neal is the leather-clad man. Watch it and wince!
