There are some new cops out on the street.Yes. Its Eric Stoltz starring in "Jesus & Hutch". Just in time for Christmas. *Warning* This is a movie so if you are on a dialup like I am, sorry.

I always love that concept (variation on the "crime-fighting Jesus" that can be found all over ifilm.com and others), but all in all it was a poor execution (no pun intended).
It's cool they got Stoltz to do it, but mostly they just came up with the initial gimmick- and they let it sit there, doing nothing with it. I thought that kung-fu jesus was better... posted by hincandenza at 11:47 PM on November 28, 2001
Kung Fu Jesus looks like it would actually be an enjoyable movie to watch. posted by jennyb at 6:25 AM on November 29, 2001
Wow, he chased and shot three hasidic jews in the first minute (or were the just old time gangsters, i cant tell the difference). That's one pissed off jesus, he didn't even yell freeze.
Its not terribly funny, but the cheesiness made me laugh more than anything. The plastic jesus on the dashboard was a nice touch. I think the selling point here is that Stoltz is doing something surreally wacky. posted by skallas at 8:04 AM on November 29, 2001
Yeah, this thing needed to be about half as long as it was. Coulda woulda shoulda been funny.
Oh, the MPEG artifacts were dreadful. posted by kindall at 8:16 AM on November 29, 2001
kindall -- my thoughts exactly. The WMP encoding blows. And why do these parody shorts always seem to always overstay their welcome? Chop off 2 minutes and it would have actually remained funny. posted by Fofer at 9:31 AM on November 29, 2001
