Super Troopers
Stream
Rent & Buy
Five bored, occasionally high and always ineffective Vermont state troopers must prove their worth to the governor or lose their jobs. After stumbling on a drug ring, they plan to make a bust, but a rival police force is out to steal the glory.
What critics thought
DivisiveCritics were largely unimpressed at release, finding the comedy too scattered and juvenile to hold together as a film — yet audiences embraced it far more warmly, and it has since built a cult following that diverges sharply from the critical consensus. The gap between what reviewers said and what viewers actually felt is wider here than almost anywhere.
“I can't quite recommend it — it's too patched together — but I almost can; it's the kind of movie that makes you want to like it”
