Hot Pursuit
Straight-arrow policewoman Cooper is excited and thrilled about her next assignment. Her task is to escort Daniella Riva, a wisecracking Colombian beauty, from San Antonio to Dallas so both she and her husband can testify against a drug lord. Plans go awry when Mr. Riva gets ambushed, leaving Daniella a widow. Cooper and her witness must now use their wits to escape from crooked cops and murderous gunmen, while not killing each other in the process.
Critics Sentiment
Very high Cooper and Daniella change clothes at a store
Cooper realizes Dixon and Hauser are corrupt cops with Longhorn tattoos
The film's biggest jump occurs when Cooper gets high from the cocaine crash, turning lazy writing into genuinely funny physical comedy.
Hot Pursuit starts slow with predictable buddy comedy setup but finds its footing in the middle third through physical comedy and drug-fueled antics. The film peaks during Cooper's high sequence but loses momentum when plot twists become too ridiculous, ending on a mediocre note that satisfied neither fans nor critics.
