Blue Streak is a 1999 action comedy film directed by Les Mayfield and starring Martin Lawrence. The film is a remake of the 1965 British film The Big Job, although the original film is uncredited.Miles Logan (Lawrence) is a reputed jewel thief who, along with some accomplices, successfully steals a $17 million diamond in Los Angeles. After an argument with one of the accomplices as to how the profits from the diamond should be divided among them, the police close in on them, and Logan is forced to hide the diamond in the air conditioning ducts of a construction site. He is then arrested. Two years later, Logan is released from prison whereupon he seeks to reclaim the diamond, which should still be there in the ducts. To his dismay, he discovers the construction site was that of a police station. In order to get in to retrieve the diamond, he is forced to pose as a cop. Hilarity Ensues.Has nothing to do with Sonic The Hedgehog. | |

Blue Streak / int_1086f287 | comment |
Sure, Let's Go with That: Quite a few of these by Logan in order to maintain his cover as a cop. One notable example is Lieutenant Rizzo commenting on how Logan looks familiar. Presumably looking for a distraction, Logan asks Lizzo based on some trophies if he's a bowler. Rizzo concludes that Logan is a fellow bowler, and happy to have the out, Logan plays along. | |

Blue Streak / int_1994ba0b | comment |
Gone Horribly Right: From Logan's perspective, this applies to his cover as Malone; he just wanted to be able to get into the station, get the diamond, and get out, but his fake record is so impressive that he ends up becoming the temporary head of the station's burglary division, thus hindering the amount of time he can spend looking for the diamond. | |

Gentleman Thief | |
Blue Streak / int_20d965e | comment |
Gentleman Thief: Subverted with Logan. He steals for the thrill, has some strong standards, and is very charismatic, but his likeability is due to being a down to earth, everyday guy outside of that. He has very little class, is willing to get physical, and gets frustrated very easily, lacking the outward trappings of this archetype. | |

Hastily Hidden MacGuffin | |
Blue Streak / int_3667bfa1 | comment |
Hastily Hidden MacGuffin: Logan stuffed a stolen diamond into ductwork in a building under construction. The building turned out to be a police station, and the character had to pretend to be a cop to have a chance to search for the diamond. An accidental example happens later, when he drops the diamond into a stash of confiscated drugs. Thinking fast, he comes up with the plan to use the drugs in a sting operation, which will give him time to recover the rock. | |

Bittersweet Ending: More sweet than bitter. Carlson and Hardcastle learn that Logan's actually a jewel thief, and let Logan go as he's now on the other side of the border. But the trio part ways on good terms, Logan's got his diamond at long last, avenged Eddie against Deacon, and the last shot is of him walking into Mexico, looking forward to spending his ill-gotten, but hard-earned riches. | |

Undercover Cop Reveal: Subverted. Logan's already pretending to be a cop, and when he's found out... he convinces his partner that he's undercover Internal Affairs. When the partner talks to a more senior detective, the detective claims that "Malone" is obviously FBI. When that fails, he claims to be a Federale (Mexican Fed), explaining that he's part-Mexican (despite not looking it). | |

The Good, the Bad, and the Evil: Logan's an ex-con, but a fairly sympathetic Noble Demon, while the LAPD, despite being somewhat corrupt, are equally likeable, and just trying to do their job of keeping Los Angeles safe. Deacon, on the other hand, is a murderer and backstabber, and LaFleur is a ruthless drug dealer who tries to get Logan to shoot his mate. | |

Blue Streak / int_74b85afd | comment |
If You're So Evil, Eat This Kitten!: At one point, Logan, still posing as a cop, is forced to pose as a drug dealer as part of a sting operation. The head of the ring asks him to shoot a man to prove he isn't a cop. Since he hates the other man, he obliges immediately, but shoots him in the arm. When told more specifically to kill him, he hesitates for a long time and would have failed the test if not for the other cops showing up. The same scene also counts as a subversion of Shoot Your Mate, as Logan does not like the guy he's asked to kill. | |

All of this is played for laughs. Though he subverts it, in that he does eventually succeed in his goals, rather than being doomed to failure. | |

Villain Protagonist: Downplayed with Logan, an otherwise good-natured jewel thief looking to get the diamond he stole and later hid inside a police station, by posing as an officer of the law. That said, he's a pretty likeable man all things considered, and he doesn't want to cause any trouble beyond getting the diamond he went to prison for. He eventually kills Deacon at the end, but A), it's Deacon, and B) Deacon shot first.

Exact Words: Martin Lawrence's character, Miles Logan, is told to shoot his murderous ex-partner by a group of drug traffickers, in order to prove he's not a cop. Since he hates the guy, Miles just says "no problem" and shoots him in the arm. When told that he was supposed to kill him, Miles replies "Well you didn't say kill him, you just 'shoot him'!". When told to kill instead, it's then that Miles can't seem to do it. | |

Let Off by the Detective: By the end of the film the real detectives have realized that Logan is a thief, but after getting to know him they decide to use the excuse that Logan is out of their jurisdiction (as Logan is in Mexico by that point), and they decide to look the other way and let Logan go his merry way instead of taking any actions that could result in him getting arrested, including calling Mexican police and telling them to detain Logan. | |
