Detaljer
In The Parole Officer (2001), a comedy/crime film directed by John Duigan, Simon Garden (played by Steve Coogan), a well-meaning but inept parole officer, finds himself at the center of a shocking crime when he is wrongly accused of murder. In order to clear his name, Simon enlists the help of his former clients, including the computer-savvy Colin (played by Om Puri), the kleptomaniac George (played by Stephen Dillane), and the explosives expert Jeff (played by Ben Miller). Together, they must navigate the seedy criminal underworld and outwit both the police and the real villains who set Simon up.
As the story unfolds, Simon and his motley crew hatch a hilariously outrageous plan to retrieve incriminating evidence from a high-security bank vault. Along the way, they encounter numerous comedic mishaps, including a demented villain, a romantic interest in the form of a museum curator named Emma (played by Lena Headey), and the continual threat of being caught by both the authorities and the actual culprits.
Filled with witty dialogue, slapstick humor, and unexpected plot twists, The Parole Officer offers a lighthearted and entertaining experience. Audiences will be on the edge of their seats as they root for Simon and his unconventional team to overcome the odds and clear his name. This British comedy is sure to leave viewers in stitches with its quirky characters, clever humor, and fast-paced action.
