  Starsky & Hutch
The reason that Starsky and Hutch succeeds where I-Spy, Charlie's Angels, and many others have failed is that it maintains a sense of respect and homage for the original television series (which ran from 1975-1979) and the casting of Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson.
David Starsky (Stiller, Along Came Polly, Duplex) is the uptight one, and Ken "Hutch" Hutchinson (Wilson, The Big Bounce, Shanghai Knights) is the rule breaker.
Starsky and Hutch is noticeably different from some of the other retreads in that it is not aiming for the sky.

 Starsky and Hutch
At first glance, Starsky and Hutch (1975-79, ABC) seems of a piece with Baretta, The Streets of San Francisco, or even producer Aaron Spelling's own Charlie's Angels--one more post-1960s police series with street smarts and social cognizance, that expresses at least a passing familiarity with youth culture.
To the left are three vertically stacked images: Hutch in a cowboy hat, both in construction outfits, and Starsky as Chaplin and Hutch in whiteface.
Hutch watches straight-faced while Starsky attempts the samba, festooned in thick bangles, flowing robes, and a Carmen Miranda headpiece.

 'Starsky & Hutch' Review -- Omar Gallaga, AA-S
When he appears in the new film "Starsky & Hutch," directed and co-written by "Old School's" Todd Phillips, the creaky '70s TV show remake sputters to sudden life after nearly 45 minutes of lukewarm buddy-cop film mechanics.
There are a lot of missed opportunities for laughs in "Starsky & Hutch," and it becomes evident after a while that Phillips wasn't sure whether to play the '70s kitsch straight or to wink, as the first "Brady Bunch" film did, tweaking its well-known TV version by placing its out-of-whack family in a modern setting.
But the stilted "Starsky & Hutch" might become a relic of its own someday — a reminder of a time when studios thought remaking old TV shows into movies was a good idea.

Starsky & Hutch is, in essence, the ancient coin-op Chase HQ with the additions of a sprawling 3D city, power-ups, and light-gun support.
In each of the game's 18 primary missions, which are amusingly grouped into "seasons" and "episodes," you have one of three tasks: drive to a particular location, destroy a fleeing car by ramming into it and shooting it, or protect a car by ramming into and shooting anyone who attacks it.
With its unique two-player mode and very reasonable MSRP, Starsky & Hutch is a no-brainer of a purchase for light-gunners, penny-pinchers, and people with friends.

 Variety.com - Reviews - Starsky and Hutch
As is customary, "Starsky & Hutch" takes considerable liberties in setting up the bigscreen version, turning Starsky (Stiller) into a stiffly by-the-book cop -- the kind who takes impossible rooftop leaps after perps -- whereas Wilson's Hutch is a rule-breaking ne'er-do-well.
From Starsky's perm to the screeching wheels of his beloved Ford Gran Torino to a disco showdown, the conceit is strictly a "Wasn't that silly?" approach, perhaps because the simple charms of a show that signed off 25 years ago don't leave room for much else.
To say that "Starsky & Hutch" generates more energy than recent predecessors engaged in similar vault robbing might sound like condemnation with faint praise, but it's hard to dig up pearls from a recycling bin.
