Movie Summary
For those unfamiliar with its setup: the popular sketch comedy television series Reno 911! posits itself as an absurdist parody of the long-running reality program Cops, thus placing outrageous and occasionally violent slapstick against a backdrop of deadpan, documentary-like authenticity for maximum laughs. Reno takes several steps backward, however, by involving itself in both the exploits of the knuckleheaded Nevada law officers and the camera crews that film them. The first feature adaptation of that series, Reno 911!: Miami, finds the team and its everpresent film crew traveling to south Florida for a national police assembly, where a registration snafu waylays them from the main convention center to a fleabag motel. When a bioterrorist attack hits the convention, however - forcing all of the other law officers to be quarantined - the Reno personnel, as the only uncontaminated policemen, must swing into heroic action and save the day. Lt. Jim Dangle (co-writer Thomas Lennon) with his trademark blonde hair, mustache, mirrored-sunglasses and skin-tight, short shorts, leads the pack. At eighty minutes, the film essentially consists of a nonstop series of visceral gags loosely tied to its central storyline, involving jiggling breasts, rotting beached whales, violent automobile accidents, unseemly tattoos in the worst possible places, and oh, so much more. ~ Nathan Southern, All Movie Guide
