I haven't laughed this much since BRUNO. Its great to see hard R rated films. Humor for adults. Kids from this generation, maybe they'll get it. It is nuts to the wall funny. Will Forte gives a comedian's star making performance. The funny thing is that it really looks like an action film. Some actors play it straight while Wiig and Forte pile on the laughs. There are a couple of scenes that are just laugh out loud funny. I gave a thunderous laugh, almost like a scream, I didn't care. Terms like upper decker will forever stay with me. It is probably the best SNL movie since WAYNE'S WORLD, strike that, since THE BLUES BROTHERS. I didn't laugh as hard watching WAYNE'S WORLD. For a great time,see this insane comedy. Classic Macgrubber!

I can't believe so many negative reviews by some PC posters. They just can't take the reality of the streets. They just can't take it! Since this show debuted in 2002 I've been riveted by the performances and the sense of doom that looms over The Barn since day 1. I don't know what these negative posters want! The days of cop shows where they share a hearty laugh, go to freeze frame and credits appear are over. For this people I recommend one of the zillion CSI, Law and Order spin-offs or reruns of MURDER SHE WROTE or MAGNUM PI. They simply want to shut their eyes and ears to the truth in their cop shows.

Michael Chiklis is simply unforgettable as Det.Vic Mackey. He has carved a place on the history of TV's badasses for all eternity. The complex emotions one derives from the show is unique. It is the reason why you're kept glued to your seat every episode. This series dares you to watch! If you feel uncomfortable, well, you should! The guys in the Strike Team, Capt.Aceveda, Dutchboy, Lt.Danny Sofer, Det.Wyms and special guest stars Glenn Close, Forrest Whitaker and Anthony Anderson sizzle the screen with their tough and sometimes heartfelt performances. The storyline that permeates from season 1 through season 5 is unpredictable all the way.

Don't be fooled by weak stomached, CSI watching haters! Take a ride on the wild side with this cops! You will not be disappointed. If you like your shows to be saccharine, sugar coated and safe by all means, don't watch this show.

But if you like reality and you're sick to death of the cop show formula, strap in and enjoy the ride! This is what's real! This is the truth! Thank God for The Shield!! A reason to follow a series without the clichés and the cookie cutter bull of other shows!!
