Watching the Detectives

It’s the same things happening over and over, gets repetitive but does remain a lightweight comedy. There’s a good message about living life (and not staying indoors watching films all the time. A message I should take in).

Actually really liked it and I don’t like too many romantic films. Cillian Murphy and Lucy Liu are my favorites and they had great chemistry. I always appreciate seeing a romantic female lead that actually looks like me. Chaotic but the good kind!
