We all need to know that CHIPS is an action comedy about a pair of California Highway Patrol motorcycle cops. Based on the hit 1970s/1980s TV show of the same name, this version looks a lot raunchier. Starring, written by, and directed by Dax Shepard, CHIPS follows a cocky, hardened FBI agent who goes undercover as CHP officer Frank "Ponch" Poncherello (Michael Peña). He's partnered with wild rookie officer Jon Baker (Shepard), a former pro motorbiker trying to win over his unimpressed wife (Shepard's real life wife, Kristen Bell). Their styles clash, but the duo will need to put aside their differences to investigate the illegal activity going on within the CHP. Grown-up fans of the TV show should know that there's very little here for kids. In addition to action violence like explosions, shoot-outs, and even a beheading, expect frequent strong language, drug use, crude sexual humor, and graphic nudity.
Casts includes; Michael Pena as Frank “Ponch” Poncherello, Dax Shepard as Jon Baker, Jessica Mcnamee as Lindsey Taylor, Ryan Hansen as Brian Grieves, Adam Brody as Clay Allen, Vincent D’Onofrio as Vic Brown, Rosa Salazar as Ava, Maya Rudolph as Sgt. Hernandez, Adam Rodriguez as Shamus, Ben Facone the Bicycle Cop and Angelique the Hot gym girl.
TRIVIA:
After the trailer debuted, Erik Estrada, star of CHiPs (1977), the TV series on which this movie is based, retweeted a post on Twitter that blasted it as "pure trash". The Tweet was critical of the use of gunplay in the trailer, and also called the film "demeaning" to fans of the original show.
