"Obwohl er als anspruchslose Unterhaltung ganz amüsant ist, ist National Security einer dieser verzichtbaren Filme, der sein eigenes Potenzial verleugnet. Es handelt sich dabei um eine Polizei-Actionkomödie nach dem Strickmuster von Beverly Hills Cop, zugeschnitten auf die bewährte Polizistenkumpel-Formel und mit den Rassenspannungen der Ära nach Rodney King ausgeschmückt. Die Geschichte spielt in Los Angeles, wo der engagierte Bulle Ha ..."

It's set in Los Angeles, where dedicated cop Hank (Steve Zahn) does jail time for allegedly beating Earl (Martin Lawrence ..."
