How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A charming action-comedy where a brash Detroit cop's unstoppable charm and wit outsmart Beverly Hills snobs while solving his friend's murder. It's pure momentum and charisma, equal parts fish-out-of-water comedy and adrenaline-fueled detective work.
