Considering Coogan was part of a new wave of comedians in the nineties, coming through with people like the currently controversial Chris Morris, it's surprising to find him making such an old fashioned type of film. The parole Officer is entertaining and fun in an inoffensive kind of way. Not in a bland Hollywood Freddy Prinze Jr kind of way. Just that it isn't trying to rock the boat or push any limits, it just skips all that crap and tells an amusing story. Refreshing and funny.
