SYNOPSIS

Detective David Starsky (Ben Stiller) is the most dedicated undercover cop working the streets of Bay City, California. Devoted to his job, when he's on duty no crime goes unpunished. Detective Ken "Hutch" Hutchinson (Owen Wilson) is having career issues -- he's a good cop, but his hazardously laidback personality and desire for a quick buck don't always get the job done. When the two mismatched crime fighters begin their first day as a team, a "floater" turns up on the Bay City coastline. With the help of Hutch's street-savvy informant Huggy Bear (Snoop Dogg), the two begin to unravel the mysterious murder case.

All signs point to wealthy businessman Reese Feldman (Vince Vaughn), but Starsky and Hutch just can't seem to make a case against him. The unlikely duo will use their undercover skills, street smarts and good looks to solve the crime and make sure the criminal does the time.
