Collision Course

i think this movie was funny.i guess i look at it different than other people.i wish they would make more movies like this one.but it may not be that great for this kind of time.i remember i was fifteen when i saw this movie i saw that scene when jay and pat was getting chased by the villain that tom noon man played as.when the two got in the train,and then it stopped.and the bad guy got blow ed to bites by the grenade that they had hid in the price package.i remember reading a comment on here where some one had the movie and used it as a table leg or something,laughing out loud.jay Leno for once to try more acting and movie showbiz won't be the same without pat.

When I saw the cover of this movie on the $2 rack at Blockbuster video, I absolutely cacked myself laughing and had to buy it. After about two years of keeping it under a table leg to stop the wobble, I finally watched it. Now, it wasn't the best movie I've seen but it sure kept me entertained. Stereotypical, yes.. Lame, absolutely.. but it was so damn funny. The 80's style car chase, the way Jay Leno seemed to forget that he'd been shot in the leg, the cheesey ending... brilliant! It was fun, it was action packed and it brought a tear to my eye.My favourite part would have to have been Tony and the guy from Karate Kid sitting in the kitchen getting sloshed. If you come across this gem in the video store or if it's coming on tele, don't pass up the opportunity to watch it. As long as your expectations aren't too high, you'll love Collision Course.

Really a funny movie that no one knew/knows about. I remember I first saw it on HBO when it was already 2-3 years old, about 92-93. Still, very funny. If you watch it you'll know. Now that I think about it, it's the first Rush Hour; white(instead of black) cop and a Chinese partner who can't speak English, but really can, have hardships through the movie, which makes it interesting and funny, then bond and become friends in the end. Cool, funny movie. 8/10

I'm repeating this, because I am starting out a new commenting title. So I think just repeating this will be better and have an overall justifiable expense. Thank you. And word to your mother.

If you thought that was funny, please say so. I just did it on a whim and it cracked me a smile.

Jay Leno? Yep comedian Jay Leno stars alongside Pat Morita (of "Karate Kid" fame) in director Lewis Teague's fundamentally nonsensical, but likable cross-cultural (there's plenty of gags stemming from that) action comedy that sees the mismatch pair team up to chase down a new turbo charged engine prototype that was illegally smuggled into the US. With murder on the cards, it doesn't look like its going to be easy for these two Tokyo and Detroit detectives. No surprise, but a genial Leno really chews it up with his wittily side-splitting dialogues and the script rapidly keeps it coming. Morita's dry style works off him well enough making a dynamic duo. Everything else (including its intrusive material that gets topical with its industrial backdrop of motor companies) feels secondary to their comical bickering and investigative follow-up. Sadly from that, the rest of the stellar cast are overshadowed. Tom Noonan (a survival nut) and Randall "Tex" Cobb make impressive henchmen thugs, who work for Chris Sarandon's seamy businessman. Also joining in is Ernie Hudson, John Hancock, Al Waxman, Denis Holahan Richard Grant and a blink-and-you-miss-it Mike Starr. Formulaic conventions aside, it's well shot, moves at a good pace and engineers some excitingly loud action (where it even rips Norris' famous jump-kick through car windshield) in this very much flamboyant 80s buddy cop product.

"I don't get paid to be civilised".

This movie will go down down in history as one of the greats, right along side of Citizen Kane, Casablanca, and On The Waterfront. Someone please convince Leno to do a sequel! Leno and Morita are a comedy duo, the likes of which haven't been seen since Abbot and Costello. The evil that emanates from Chris Sarandon, Tom Noonan, and Randall "Tex" Cobb will give you the chills. Dingman's character as the buffoonish oaf hearkens back to the days of Shakespeare's comedies. And the climax. My goodness, the climax. I won't ruin it for you, but it makes the explosion of the Death Star pale in comparison. If you can track down this hard-to-find gem, do yourself and your family a favor and buy it immediately. I'm still holding out hope for a special edition DVD one of these days.
