Always looking for action, five over-enthusiastic but under-stimulated Vermont State Troopers raise hell on the highway, keeping motorists anxiously looking in their rear-view mirrors. Between an ongoing feud with the local cops over whose you-know-what is bigger, and the state government wanting to shut them down, the "Super Troopers" find themselves precariously and hilariously heading toward calamity as they try to avoid extinction.

A more-miss -than-hit affair, Super Troopers will most likely appeal to those looking for something silly.

Sex and drug jokes abound in lowbrow comedy.

It’s not smart, it’s not sophisticated, and it has all the dignity of a fat naked man covered in powdered sugar, but 'Super Troopers' is funny. At least most of the time.

Super Troopers, silly as it is, lands as a multifaceted, balanced, and hilarious look at policing (20th anniversary)

Rated: B+

Gone With The Twins

It's become somewhat of a cult comedy with a faithful fan base, despite containing almost no sequences that are laugh-out-loud funny or memorably unique.

Rated: 2/10

A very funny and quotable series of sketches with solid comedic timing and chemistry amongst the cast that easily makes up for the thin plot.

The rotten tomato critics are some of the most brain-dead and stuck up people I’ve ever seen in my life. This movie clearly was never trying to be a “super deep cinema film” or whatever they act like but this movies a classic and is easily one of the best and funniest movies of at least the 25 years. If it wasn’t, over 250k people wouldn’t have gotten it to a 90% rating.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

In defense of the schlepstick police a-comedy, Super Troopers is woven together better than, say, Will Ferrell's skit-or-miss movies. Although the thread is still pretty cheap. The bonus to watching Super Troopers is seeing Brian Cox before he played the patriarch in Succession or Lynda Carter in a quick, special-appearance glimpse. Other than that, it's a guy movie about a bunch of idiots with badges. And it's not terrible.

Ari .

My ex-girlfriend's favorite comedy, 90% audience rating on Rotten, gave it 40 minutes - don't understand whatsoever. The 'littering and' scene is fairly funny, but I've seen the clip too many times. Litterally nothing else was worth watching for me here.

Why is Super Troopers an almost 5-Star film? It's got the power to wake-up a falling asleep viewer keeping them engaged in laughter for the majority of the movie; all-the-while, criticizing the establishment.

Sabia que seria uma comédia ruim, mas não que seria insuportavelmente ruim, começou bem, com 3 maconheiros abobados na estrada, mas dura bons 7 minutos e todo o resto se esvai em bobagens e piadas infinitamente sem graça, e fico pasma em saber que teve uma sequência, Super Tiras 2 em 2018, coragem… É desagradável em tantos aspectos, quase não venci… Não melhora, só piora, chatinho e bobinho...
