Always looking for action, five over-enthusiastic but under-stimulated Vermont State Troopers raise hell on the highway, keeping motorists anxiously looking in their rearview mirrors. Between an ongoing feud with the local cops over whose you-know-what is bigger, and the state government wanting to shut them down, the "Super Troopers" find themselves precariously and hilariously heading toward calamity as they try to avoid extinction.

It’s not smart, it’s not sophisticated, and it has all the dignity of a fat naked man covered in powdered sugar, but 'Super Troopers' is funny. At least most of the time. Go to Full Review

Super Troopers, silly as it is, lands as a multifaceted, balanced, and hilarious look at policing (20th anniversary) Go to Full Review

It's become somewhat of a cult comedy with a faithful fan base, despite containing almost no sequences that are laugh-out-loud funny or memorably unique. Go to Full Review

John K @WQCMI 2d Good comedy, but the story gets disconnected way too often to the point where it becomes repetitive. See more GH R @GHRidpath 3d One of the comedy GOAT’s See more TheMovieSearch R @TheMovieSearch 3d Super Troopers is exactly what you expect from a spoof comedy: goofy antics, ridiculous situations, over-the-top parody, and police officers who seem far more interested in being ridiculous than actually acting like cops. The problem is that this brand of comedy doesn’t really work for me. I tend to watch this kind of humor and think, "This is stupid," rather than actually laugh. Super Troopers does exactly what it sets out to do. The cast is ridiculous, but intentionally so. Every character is exaggerated, and the actors fully commit to the absurdity. I didn’t find it particularly funny, but I understand why others do. Overall, it’s not something I’ll rush to rewatch, but I wouldn’t call it bad. Super Troopers knows exactly how stupid it wants to be. For me, it was more "that’s stupid" than "that’s hilarious," but it still delivers what it was designed to deliver. It may not be my kind of comedy, but I can recognize that it works for its audiences here. See more Daniel O @RT09923519 4d This is funny and people that cannot recognize it are the 10%. See more Zachary S @Zach154 Aug 7 The stoner/immature humor style of comedy will always work on and get me laughing. See more Yash B @yashbansal Jul 30 I was interested in "Super Troopers" because it's always had a cult following status, as well as a third movie's trailer playing recently. This movie is exactly what I'd expect from a silly early 2000s comedy. The movie is full of goofy moments, and as long as you're willing to meet it where it's at, it can be a fun time. I even found the characters more endearing than expected by the end of it. That being said, this movie is fairly thin on story and is really just made for laughs. Overall, it is a good time that I feel could have been more enjoyable if I watched it with friends, but it does deliver a vibe that feels nostalgic, light, and fun enough. See more Read all reviews
