Rater #2 has description and review
Rater #1
1/10. Note: I saw about 40 minutes of this movie and I was glad I didn't see the whole entire thing.
Note: This was a waste of my life.
Why oh why did they make this movie? The jokes weren't funny, the cops were dumb, and everyone(thing too) made no sense. I like Rater #2's idea of calling this Super Poopers but it needs a better name. This movie drained my mind of anything important, so whatever you do, don't watch this!

2/10. If there's ever a movie that people say isn't as bad as it looks or
what critics say, don't agree with them. That's what I did with Super
Troopers. It's a misguided non tour-de-farce that has no idea where
it's going. In fact, to make the obligatory pun, this movie could be
called Super Poopers, since that's what this movie basically is and
what most of the "jokes" consist of.
The slim-to-none plot is about highway patrolmen who like to mess
with the people they pull over. However, the "evil" state police men
are going to take over their highway (gasp!) so they must save it.
The bad guys were all too clear-cut, not leaving any mystery or
suspense for us to follow. Of course, my DVD player did go on the
fritz twice, but I don't think I missed anything. In fact, I'm glad
it did. There's so many things wrong, what should I begin with?
First, I'll go with the non-jokes. In the beginning I may have
chuckled around twice, but soon fell through a giant hole. There are
constant drug and sex jokes that aren't funny. The slapstick wasn't
even funny; I usually fall for that. It all seemed a bit too rushed
and tried to throw in a meaningless plot instead of making this
an "SNL-movie". Personally, I think an idea like this would work
better in variety show cases. The "one-joke" premise got wasted early
on. Plus, the movie seemed to run out of steam in the end.
I also thought that all of the swearing was added in to try to
attract a larger audience; it certainly wasn't necessary and
definitely seemed not to fit in. Too many characters were thrown in,
just like all of the unoriginal movies like this. How are we supposed
to keep them straight if we don't know anything about them?
I didn't buy any of the chemistry between the troopers and the
police; in fact, it was laughingly bad. Hey, just like the rest of
the movie!.
