Why it’s a Weeknight Watch
With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, it's a mixed bag. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Great for armchair detectives and anyone who's survived a family wedding. It plays fair with the clues, so you can play along. Relationships are put under a microscope, for better or worse.
- The mood
- Light and funny.
- The pace
- Breezy, at 1 hr 22 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
- What might put you off
- Not the pick if you want something heavy or meaningful.
NYPD detectives Luis and Eddie visit Paris to help gorgeous French designer Colette catch the black market thief who's ripped off her new handbag design. While Luis' girlfriend Vanessa and Eddie's wife Gloria remain in New York, the hopelessly unhip odd couple stumble through a glamorous high-fashion world brimming with charming cafes, wild nightclubs and corporate treachery.
