Henry Adler (Tom McCamus), an outwardly normal banker, yearns to make it in show business and still answers to his overbearing father (David Hemblen). When Henry is hired to act in a television police drama, he realizes his big break has arrived and decides to do whatever it takes to get into the role -- even if that means donning his police costume in public during off hours. It isn't long, however, before Henry begins to take the law into his own hands as his violent side chillingly emerges.

11/24/2013 Ultimately, "I Love a Man in Uniform" is an interesting character driven movie that can't make it past a bland storyline and somewhat weak dialogue. See more 11/15/2010 Surprisingly thrilling B-movie with a rather innovative story (compared to others). Pretty good actors, too. It just tries to wear too many hats⦠See more 11/25/2009 What a fascinating film. Tom Mc Camus delivers a remarkable performance. Very nicely directed, good editing, excellent pace and character development. I love how reality and fantasy blurr together in the film, very skillfully done. See more 09/03/2009 A somewhat intriguing and fairly effective study of monomania, I Love a Man in Uniform demonstrates what can happen when a man stumbles across power dressing. See more 10/08/2006 What a fascinating film. Tom Mc Camus delivers a remarkable performance. Very nicely directed, good editing, excellent pace and character development. I love how reality and fantasy blurr together in the film, very skillfully done. See more 01/22/2005 [b]The Million Dollar Hotel[/b] was very good and enjoyable because it [b]A)[/b] [i]was fun[/i], and [b]B) [/b][i]portrayed a very sincere, basic and innocent type of love and lovability[/i]. I missed some of the ending because there were no commercials and I really really needed to go to the bathroom, but that's ok, the ending was not important in any way and I could not care less about it. I checked out a couple of those reviews you see by clicking the name of the film, and the word they most often offered was "pretentious". This here film was not pretentious by any means, in fact, it was noticebly sincere. Despite the quirky characters and looks, the subject matter was very straight-forward. I can see how these ever so artsy film critics, with their honed craft for seeking out hidden meanings and social commentary from anything they set their eyes upon, can get frustrated not getting what the official law of quirky films promises them. [b]A Man In Uniform [/b]was also very nice. About an actor who plays a cop in a tv-series and gets a little carried away by the role. I can't think of the right words to describe the exact style of this film but nevertheless I like it. [i]Song of the day [/i]is: [b][url="http://www.epitonic.com/songstreamer?coid=949076&bbadd=yes"]Rilo Kiley - With Arms Outstretched [/url][/b] A question: How do I make it so that I don't have to put a seperate link so the title is the link? UPDATE: thanks, it worked! Rilo Kiley like to make very catchy, anthemic, happy pop-rock tunes. I didn't much like their latest album [i]More Adventurous[/i]. But this song With Arms Outstretched is from their previous one [i]Execution Of All Things[/i] which I did like and very much so. The kind of sing-along stuff you should have at events such as the Eurovision song contest, you know...instead of the usual camp-humor (I was today casually watching some..how do you say it...preliminaries. Completely hilarious, but still a joke that does wear off and becomes more...scary). See more Read all reviews
