“A rookie officer is teamed with a hardened pro at the California Highway Patrol, though the newbie soon learns his partner is really an undercover Fed investigating a heist that may involved some crooked cops.”

Directed and written by Dax Shepard, who also stars in the film, CHiPs is the film version of the extremely popular 1977 T.V. series, starring Erik Estrada and Larry Wilcox.
