Day Two. Word from last night's midnight screenings is that this movie End of the Line is worth watching so I'm switching my schedule up to make room. That means I watch this now.

This is a comedy about a cop who uses his toupee to solve crimes. Mostly he throws it at people and it knocks them over or whatever then flies back on his head. He's surrounded by other kooky cops with silly tricks like a fat guy who can sweat all over people or a short guy who can run fast because there's less wind resistance. The only other cop with useful powers however is "Big Willie" who pops up with a light saber-like rod whenever he's turned on.

It's a really childish comedy filled with similar jokes following a simple plot. Plus it gave off a real sitcom vibe to me... like I was watching a bizarro world episode of Three's Company or something. Everyone else seemed to like it more than I did. Oh well.
