Os Três Super-Tiras

Saw this at the drive-in with my mother and little brother. Fun bits here and there. I would love to screen it again

Pleasing screwball comedy about Miami cops who catch petty thieves through a fencing front. DeLuise excels as star and director, as do Reed and Pleshette.

In Miami in Florida, cops Dom Deluise, Suzanne Pleshette, Jerry Reed, and Luis Avalos run a fencing operation as a sting.

It's highly episodic and pretty funny, too, as you might expect with Donald Westlake doing the scripting with Michael Kane. The large and varied cast includes Ossie David, Marc Lawrence, Pat McCormick, and Sidney Lassick. The movie has a loose, cobbled-together feel that indicates its incidents are drawn from police files somewhere, and the performers manage to always sound like they're making it up as it goes along -- except for Lawrence, which lends a comedy air of its own.

This was actually a very funny film! The laughs were nonstop, and the acting was great! Even the action scenes had some laughs as well! Dom Deluise, Jerry Reed, and Suzanne Pleshette made a terrific team! don't forget Luis Avalos (Ramon)! He was OK too! If you haven't seen this movie, GET IT! You will not be disappointed! There is nothing really objectionable, Just a few swear words. In a nutshell, Great comedy, well written and directed!

Miami police detectives Ernie Fortunato (Dom DeLuise) and Doug von Horne (Jerry Reed) are partners working stolen goods in a squad run by Captain John Geiberger (Ossie Davis). Sergeant Louise Webster (Suzanne Pleshette) has been brought in to fix their lack of convictions. Doug has the idea to take over a rundown pawn shop to film all the thieves fencing their stolen goods.

This is a mildly humorous comedy directed by Dom DeLuise. It mostly relies on the loveable characters in the squad doing funny things. Quite frankly, it relies on the performers themselves more than anything else or the writing.
