| Sylvester Stallone plays an overweight, dull, half-deaf sheriff of a sleepy
New Jersey town that was created by New York cops on the take. The story
never gets interesting, and neither do the characters, but it was exceptionally
interesting to me to witness the creation of a new city in Edgewater. Parts
of the film are filmed in Edgewater and in Fort Lee. The name of the town
they created was "Garrison". Garrison, Fort Lee, hmmm... anyway, it was
just neat because I live near that area. Oh, the story? Sleepy sheriff
in sleepy town wants to be a "real" cop, a New York City cop, but isn't
qualified, so he does the hero thing in his sleepy little town. |
