Query: Could have been great...

I was 13 years old when the series originated and have seen every episode several times. I have purchased seasons 1 and 2 on dvd from Amazon and was at first concerned that the show would not be quite as enjoyable as I remembered. The fact is that viewing these episodes after all this time I find that the original series was really great and that Paul Michael Glaser and David Soul, Antonio Fargas as well, not only acted well but that the action was top notch. Which brings me to this movie. I like Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson, both very talented guys. This could have been great instead it was full of low end cheap dialogue and situations. It has absolutey nothing to do with the original series regarding wit, character or integrity. It shows these chacters as bafoons. Hey I enjoy senseless bad taste as much as the next guy but it has to be at least funny. Don't waste your time with this movie, watch the original series.
