Inspector Ike, New York City's greatest police detective, finds himself in a high-stakes game of cat-and-mouse after the conniving understudy of an avant-garde theater group knocks off the star actor. A "lost TV movie" from the 1970's, INSPECTOR IKE mixes visual gags, slapstick, gross food, and heartfelt emotion. Think COLUMBO meets THE NAKED GUN, featuring a rogue's gallery of NYC's best comedians.

It’ll work best with viewers whose funny bones are of the dry variety.

After the credits rolled, I wished I lived in a time and place where I could tune into Inspector Ike’s adventures every week.

It's a blast of pure cheeriness that'll cause a smile on the face of any downbeat party-pooper around, and it cant be recommended nearly enough.

Rated: 5/5

Funny parody that knows how to deliver laughs without strictly making fun of the source material. A fun cat and mouse that is reminiscent of the genre it is spoofing.

Inspector Ike isn't built for bigness, remaining a modest offering of silliness, and it largely succeeds through engaged, playful performances and occasional ideas that deliver on the promise of such a strange spoof.

Rated: B

It really feels like you're watching a lost Saturday night TV movie from the 1970s...

Oblique humor at its best and the timing is bang on. Spoiler alert about the anticipated chili recipe that just seems to be in the right spot!! Looks like it was made in the seventies but then there is that HR reference(HA!)

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars
