Leave your thoughts about Super Troopers.
| Los Angeles Daily NewsGlenn Whipp[P]robably won't add up to much of a theatrical run for Super Troopers, but this is the kind of movie that could take on a life of its own once it leaves theaters. |
| Hollywood ReporterMichael RechtshaffenCompared to what tends to pass for comedies these days, this creation of the five-man sketch-comedy team billing itself as Broken Lizard actually induces chuckles at acceptable intervals, which puts it well ahead of the game. |

| E! OnlineE! StaffIt may be a 100-minute brain-cell vacation, but, mamma mia, it's funny. |
| New York Daily NewsJami BernardThe cast, collectively a successful example of the lovable-loser protagonist, shows deft comic timing, particularly Chandrasekhar, who wrings laughs just by his reaction to the locals' racist remarks. |
| New York PostLou LumenickLaugh-out-loud comedies are so rare that you shouldn't casually pass up Super Troopers, which is essentially a smarter and much funnier version of the old "Police Academy" flicks. |
