QUIZ: Can you finish the quotes from these classic action-comedies?

Only someone who really knows their action-comedies would get full marks here.

There’s no shame at all in saying you’d much prefer to watch a buddy cop movie or action-comedy over a hard-hitting drama. It’s a tried and tested formula, and there’s next to no chance of us ever getting sick of it.

We’ve been treated to some absolute classics over the years, from Beverly Hills Cop (1984) to modern classics like The Other Guys (2010). One thing that connects all of these movies is the standard of dialogue, which is what makes them so awesome.

After all, what’s an action-comedy without at least a few memorable one-liners?

To celebrate the release of Stuber on Friday, 12 July, we thought we’d test your knowledge of that dialogue. Stuber tells the story of a macho cop (Dave Bautista) and a sensitive Uber driver (Kumail Nanjiani) who end up being thrown together on a mad adventure involving explosions, guns and more explosions.

Pretty standard Uber journey, to be fair.
