T&A 911: Miami

The Reno 911 movie is getting creamed over at Rotten Tomatoes, but I can assure you that the movie is ridiculous. And disgusting. And funny. There are some parts of the movie that don’t really work. You get the feeling that much of the film was improvised, which I generally tend to love, but if that’s the case, then there there were actually a couple of times that they shold have kept shooting instead of…
