The film is the story of two Canadian detectives, one from Ontario and the other from Quebec. They must work together when a murdered victim is found on the Ontario Quebec border line.
As with all buddy movies, Bon Cop Bad Cop succeeds on the strength of the leads' rapport.

Bon Cop, Bad Cop, a rare Canadian venture into straightforward commercialism, manages to work well as both light entertainment and running commentary on the culture clash between the English and French Canadas.
Its good-hearted probing of Canada's social and cultural balancing act likely will do more to promote harmony in Canada than a whole raft of political speeches.

Accessible and entertaining, with enough local flavor to seem exotic to English viewers. Not only that, but it's FUN.
