Pity Harry Ford, he's done a string of good (not great) big-budget movies that have tanked at the box office. H-Squared is one of them. I liked this movie a lot. Just enough balance between light comedy (Josh Hartnett and Harry yuck it up), and semi-serious drama. Harry and Josh play, respectivley; a lifer on the LAPD who moonlites selling (or trying to) real estate, and a young detective who really wants to be an actor. Fortunately both are far better cops than they are at their "second careers". Both investigate a triple homicide that takes them into the world of the hip-hop/rap music business, where the competition for $$$ is high and dangerous. After a lot of action on and off the job (both men have gorgeous women after them) they crack the case, get the bad guys (Frank Sinatra Jr puts in a nice supporting role as a baddie), and in Harry's case gets Internal Affairs off his back. A good movie that deserved to have done better at the box office.
