Special Unit

If you liked the Ringer, chances are you will enjoy this movie. It's an absolute underdog story that gives you a different perspective on special people. It's a lighthearted movie that is enjoyable.

I've been a huge fan of Christopher Titus for years and I listen to his podcast occasionally. Lately he's been promoting this movie and honestly his repeated promotions got old. It got to the point where I'd just skip them or even shut off his podcasts when he'd start. Eventually when this movie came out I saw promotions for it and I just turned away. I didn't expect it to be a bad movie but I wasn't expecting it to be good either. In order to prevent having a bad or meh experience I just decided to ignore it. Well, tonight I decided to just go on a whim and just watch it. I mean the way Titus has been raving about how hard he and his team have been working on this thing I figured I should at least be a decent fan and checkout his work and try to support him in some way. I went into the movie with low expectations and well, I was absolutely pleased with this thing! Like, The jokes in this thing were right after another at a few times I had to pause the darn thing just to catch my breath from laughing too hard. It was nice to see a few cameo appearances from some of Titus' old co-stars from his old sitcom like Zack Ward (He did a few stunts in the beginning) and Cynthia Watros (She played the mayor). As for the characters, I found Alvin's character to be the best dude stole the show and his scenes had me laughing hysterically. I have to say, if you've been on the fence about seeing this movie you should definitely give it a shot. Great job Combustion Films team! I can't wait to see your next project! Keep up the good work.

I've always enjoyed the work of Christopher Titus and in this film he does not disappoint. The humor is slightly irreverent, but funny. The main plot involves a police department having to create a unit of police officers with disabilities due to the fairness in disabilities act. Titus plays a screw-up cop who ends up in charge of this "Special Unit".

The movie is funny without making fun of people with disabilities and the production hired several disabled actors to appear in the film.

The always enjoyable Billy Gardell shows up as the police captain, and we get a great performance from the late Debbie Lee Carrington is wonderful in this film.

The real star here is Christopher Titus, who wrote, directed and started in the movie and managed to make a great film that holds up to repeat viewing.

If you like funny, off-beat humor or are a fan of Christopher Titus's stand-up you will love this movie.

Definitely not leaving any spoilers behind because I'd rather have people watch this for themselves. I just have to say that since we're not going to get to see any Al Bundy's down humor anymore or humor like this movie provides. On account of the fact that our delicate thin-skinned little Snowflake culture we've cultivated will no longer allow us to have a laugh. I am considered disabled. I feel that every once in a while we have to enjoy a little bit of dark humor or even humor that is completely inappropriate. This whole movie is completely inappropriate. But, it's intended to be. We just need to be able to laugh at ourselves more. If we can't learn to do that then we're already more disabled than we think.

A puzzler for us at first - disabled detectives - how can it possibly work as a movie?! It did, and was funny too, although not at the expense of anyone's dignity. Innovative as well which is unusual for Hollywood these days. Although, in the end it did go with 'feel good' but that wasn't a bad thing. Many of today's movies are depressing because they're stupid in the literal sense, offering nothing much except cardboard cutouts and CGI. This movie gave perspective on what disabled folk face, but still allowed us to laugh with them through their difficulties, and like the characters, and root for them. We'll be looking out for more Titus movies.
