Can a crook go straight without really trying? Jewel thief Miles Logan (Martin Lawrence) was being chased by the police after a robbery when he was forced to hide a cache of diamonds, worth $20 million, at a construction site. Despite his caution, Miles ended up behind bars anyway; after serving his time, he goes back to retrieve the stones only to discover what was being built: a police station. Miles needs to spend some time at the station to figure out what happened to his nest egg, so he sneaks in, posing as a police detective. Trouble is, he's so convincing that the cops assign him a rookie partner, Carlson (Luke Wilson), to put through training. To his surprise, Miles turns out to be a good cop, and the more he tries to find the missing diamonds, the higher he's promoted through the department, until he finds himself in line for a top spot in the detective's division. Supporting Lawrence and Wilson in Blue Streak are Dave Chappelle, William Forsythe, and Nicole Parker. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

    This isn't a bad movie, but you do not laugh as much as I would expect. The story is sort of funny and ironic, but Martin Lawrence isn't. That is what drags this movie down.

    Martin Lawrence is great in this. The movie carries a sweet message, that after years of being on the wrong side of the law has trained him for being on the right side. Turns out Miles logan (martin) is very good at being a good guy. I have watched this several times. I think it is very funny & cute. When Martin dresses as the pizza guy is just a total hoot!

    I loved this movie, it was funny, had a good story line, and good action. I loved the ending. Martin Lawrence plays the most lovable, funny crook ever. Luke Wilson is a great bumbling dective. It's a great action/comedy!
