Breaking new ground, Martin Lawrence stars as a funky, street smart black man who gets teamed up with a nerdy, straight laced white guy in this cop-buddy-movie-with-a-twist. The twist being that Lawrence's character, jewel thief Miles Logan, is only pretending to be a cop. Unfortunately, it seems that Blue Streak was written by someone who was only pretending to be a scriptwriter, as it lacks both laughs and originality. Still, Lawrence is ceaselessly charming, and one hopes that someone will someday buy him a real movie, so we can see his comic talent put to good effect.
