2001's Osmosis Jones is a hybrid live action-animated Buddy Cop Movie featuring Chris Rock as the eponymous character and David Hyde Pierce as his cold pill partner. The two are paired up to stop a nasty criminal (played by Laurence Fishburne) from destroying the city of Frank, hindered by the self-centered mayor Phlegmming (William Shatner), whose assistant (R&B singer Brandy) is the main love interest.Also, this all takes place inside a human body.Osmosis Jones is a white blood cell cop who lost his reputation after a nasty incident that ruined Frank DeTorre (the human this movie takes place in, played by Bill Murray) out in the real world. Frank eats a contaminated egg that carried a deadly virus by the name of Thrax, whose goal is to kill Frank within 48 hours.After Thrax starts doing some damage, Jones is paired up with a cold pill named Drix. The two clash frequently, as most new cop partners do in movies, until Drix sees Thrax himself, and takes Ozzy's side.Meanwhile, while all this is happening in the animated world of the City of Frank, we get a few peeks at what Frank is going through, in the live-action sequences of the movie, trying to care for his health-conscious daughter Shane.This movie spawned a spinoff cartoon called Ozzy & Drix.One of the two animation directors was Tom Sito, who had previously been a lead animator on another, more successful live action/animation hybrid film. | |

Artistic License – Biology | |
Osmosis Jones / int_18aff462 | comment |
Artistic License – Biology: All anthropomorphization aside, anyone who's passed high school biology knows that viruses don't work even remotely like they're depicted in the film. Though they can be harmful to the organisms that they infest, they don't deliberately destroy the host body, because that would kill them too. Like all living organisms, their instinct is to spread and replicate, and they do this (highly simplified) by mutating a host's cells into copies of themselves. The cells then can't do their original job, they do the Virus's job, which is to spread and replicate and find a way to spread to other bodies so that they can spread and replicate some more. If Thrax actually behaved like a virus, he would have spent the movie making an army of Thrax-clones or pulling Grand Theft Me on other cells à la Invasion of the Body Snatchers, not trying to kill Frank by stealing his hypothalamus. Though, to be fair, it might be implied that Thrax is a plague rather than an ordinary virus. Plagues also don't deliberately destroy the host body, but they still end up destroying it because they have jumped species from animals to humans. This is reinforced by Thrax entering Frank by way of the monkey pen. What might cause a mild cold in a monkey could be deadly to a human. However, if this were the case, the more realistic scenario would be Thrax causing destruction by accident rather than deliberately attempting to kill Frank (and others). The film depicts first responders of the City of Frank struggling to suppress his Thrax-induced inflammation and fever in order to save him. Both inflammation and fever are actually defense mechanisms which the body itself deploys, to accelerate its cellular and chemical defenses and impede many pathogens' spread. Harm inflicted by a too-intense fever happens because the mechanisms that maintain our normal body temperature aren't used to keeping our bodies hotter than that, so fevers can run out of control in extremis, like an ambulance rushing someone to the hospital so fast that it crashes. | |

Chekhov's Gun | |
Osmosis Jones / int_22cf536c | comment |
Chekhov's Gun: When Thrax is destroying the saliva boat, he's humming "Fever", which gives you his method of killing making this a classic use of this trope . There's also Frank's allergy to pollen pods. Thrax uses it to escape Frank's body. The false eyelash that Shane's friend gives her. In the climax, Ozzy and Thrax duke it out on top of it. Thrax doesn't realize that it's fake until he gets his hand stuck in it...just before it falls off of Shane's eye into a beaker of alcohol. Cue dramatic death scene. | |

Actor Allusion: In the climactic fight scene between Ozzy and Thrax, the camera briefly freezes and rotates around them; a la The Matrix. Thrax is voiced by Laurence Fishburne, who played Morpheus.

Osmosis Jones / int_4280d1fd | comment |
Spock Speak: Subverted—in a flashback, Frank speaks to a kid at a science fair who talks in this manner about his project to leach the toxins out of polluted oysters. Certain that the kid's a genius and the project worked, Frank picks one out of the container and eats it raw. Then finds out the kid is actually of very low intelligence and the oysters are still polluted. (This, incidentally, is what led to Jones's disgrace—he saw a dangerous-looking germ on the oysters in the stomach before anyone else and pressed an emergency "puke" button at exactly the wrong time, plus he did it so quickly that no-one else saw the germ.) | |

Disproportionate Retribution | |
Osmosis Jones / int_50b05d30 | comment |
Disproportionate Retribution: Mrs. Boyd gets embarrassed due to Frank throwing up on her after eating some bad oysters (which was revealed to be Ozzy flushing a virus out of his system) and places a restraining order against him for it. Who knows what the magistrate was thinking when he thought that this justified passing the order? Also, she starts screaming at him and refuses to remove said order when his zit pops on her. Yes, it's disgusting, but it's not like Frank did it on purpose. | |

Obliviously Evil | |
Osmosis Jones / int_51c70be6 | comment |
Though, to be fair, it might be implied that Thrax is a plague rather than an ordinary virus. Plagues also don't deliberately destroy the host body, but they still end up destroying it because they have jumped species from animals to humans. This is reinforced by Thrax entering Frank by way of the monkey pen. What might cause a mild cold in a monkey could be deadly to a human. However, if this were the case, the more realistic scenario would be Thrax causing destruction by accident rather than deliberately attempting to kill Frank (and others). | |

10-Minute Retirement: Ozzy goes through this after Mayor Phlegmming instead of thanking them for supposedly stopping Thrax, fires Ozzy from the police department after blowing up The Zit, using his poor record and breaking of regulations as a smokescreen to cover up the existence of Thrax's infection which would've kept him from being re-elected, and orders Drix to leave Frank's body. Fortunately, both of them come around when Thrax makes Frank's body go to hell in a handbag, and they end up getting their jobs back. | |

Five-Second Rule: Ultimately what kickstarts the plot. When Frank gets his egg stolen by a monkey, he has a fight for it until it falls to the ground in which he picks it up claiming this before eating it in spite of his daughter rightfully pointing out how filthy it is. Given the egg had already been in the monkey's mouth for longer than five seconds before hitting the ground, it proved that Frank was Too Dumb to Live. | |

By hitting the large, glowing button in The Stomach labeled (of course) "VOMIT". At the end of the movie, Phlegmming (having been impeached and now demoted to cleaning the bowels) sees a big red button and pushes it, only to be farted out of Frank's body. | |

Freeze-Frame Bonus: The backgrounds offer plenty of sight gags, such as signs reading "Rectum - Exit Only", "Slow - Sore Throat", "Ulcer Repair", and "Danger - Open Nerve". For a brief moment, after Thrax killed the two blood cells managing the hypothalamus, you can see the dead body of one cells leaning over the console with several of the hypothalamus' thermometers in his posterior. You get a clearer image when the gland is freaking out later. | |

Second, Frank's near-death caused by a high fever. And finally, after Ozzy travels back to Frank in a tear drop, he appears to be dead, but wakes up. | |

Laser-Guided Karma: After his actions nearly got Frank killed, Mayor Phlegmming is impeached and thrown out of office, stuck working as a lowly worker down in Frank's bowels. And then he presses the button that causes Frank to fart... | |

Apocalypse How | |
Osmosis Jones / int_91e894b4 | comment |
Apocalypse How: Well, while Frank's death wouldn't even make a dent in our society, for the cells that live in Frank it'd be the equivalent of a Class 6, maybe Class X depending on what the doctors choose to do with his body afterward. Thrax has done this at least three times before, which in terms of casualties is the equivalent of burning an entire world to the ground three thousand times over. | |

You Have Outlived Your Usefulness: No killing here, but the Mayor said that Drix is only temporary. Thrax burns Joe Cramp and Bruiser alive once they become a hindrance (they suggest that they incubate, which would mean Thrax wouldn't be able to break his record). | |

Homage | |
Osmosis Jones / int_a1a1491e | comment |
Homage: Thrax's death is extremely reminiscent of T-1000's bath in molten metal. Also, the part where Jones reassembles himself after getting split in two looks a lot like the part in Terminator 2: Judgment Day where the T-1000 pulls its head back together after getting blasted point blank by a shotgun. The fight on Shane's eye, and Thrax's design are shout outs to The Matrix. (Not to mention the fact that Thrax is voiced by Laurence Fishburne) "Gentlemen, it's been a pleasure playing with you this evening." Including the fact that this line is followed by the band playing "Nearer My God To Thee". The Godfather scene in the armpit. "El Muerte Roja" or "The Red Death" possibly refers to Edgar Allan Poe's "The Masque of the Red Death", also, both diseases are written in without much identity other than that they kill in awful ways. | |

Osmosis Jones / int_acf33d00 | comment |
Nice Job Fixing It, Villain: During the final fight, Thrax tries to use his chain, which holds Frank's as well as his previous victims' hypothalamus chromosome, to strangle Ozzy. However, Shane winds up blinking (they're fighting on her eye) separating the two with the chain still around Ozzy's neck. After Thrax's last attack fails, Ozzy manages to escape with the chain while Thrax falls into a bottle of alcohol. Also counts as a Hoist by His Own Petard, as had Thrax merely killed Ozzy using his acidic claw, he would have won handily. | |

Everyone Has Standards: Frank may not be the best of fathers, but he does question if his brother Bob is going to be a good guardian for Shane, especially when he offhandedly claims he'll kick his niece out by the time she's 16. Ironically, even Bob has better standards than Mayor Phlegmming when it comes to Frank's well-being. Bear in mind, this is the same guy who's idea of drinking fluids is "drowning a cold" with beer. But on their way to Buffalo, Bob notices Frank growing delirious and feverish. Through Frank, the Mayor tries to convince Bob he's just fine, only to find that Frank is too far gone to even speak. Bob immediately calls off their trip to Buffalo and took his brother to the hospital. The Police Chief has a look of surprise when Phlegmming relieves Ozzy of his badge. | |

Eating raw, polluted oysters; eating an egg dropped in a filthy monkey cage, where not even the ten second or even the ONE second rule should apply—especially since THE EGG HAD ALSO BEEN IN THE MONKEY'S MOUTH. All his knowledge goes to promoting his laziness or retaining sports statistics. (Well, considering that Mayor Phlegmming has been running his brain...) Scabies, the mob germ boss. Even after being eviscerated by Thrax, Scabies' disembodied mouth still continues to insult him before being sucked down the drain. | |

Fan Disservice: That picture of the chief's disgustingly obese wife in a bikini, which can be seen during the scene when Ozzy is first seen talking his boss. The shot lingers long enough to make sure you've seen it and absorbed its grandeur. Also, the dancers in the Zit nightclub. They wear bikinis and are modeled after strippers, but the way they are portrayed (eyeball in the bellybutton, two rods in place of a head, etc) is intended to be weird rather than arousing. | |

Shout-Out | |
Osmosis Jones / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: When Ozzy and Drix return to the police station from blowing up The Zit, Ozzy accidentally calls Leah "Brandy", which is the name of her voice actor (Chris Rock unintentionally ad-libbed that line and the filmmakers decided to put it in). It might have only been intended to be Nausea Fuel, but Jones' and Drix's first conversation is very similar to the Four Yorkshiremen sketch, at least for Jones' part of it. Thrax being knocked into cleaning alcohol is a recreation of the T-1000's death in Terminator 2: Judgment Day. In the online game Mystery of the Rash Outbreak, a female cell tells the player that the password for the Zit is fidelio. Also one to the Ohio Players. When Thrax and his Mooks are gloating over the newspaper article about the heroes stopping the cold. When asked about the possibility of the protagonists intervening, Thrax responds: "Fire". As Frank's body begins to die, one violinist tells the other violinists and cellist, "Gentlemen, playing with you has been the greatest pleasure of my life," and they begin playing "Nearer My God to Thee". | |

Calling the Old Man Out: Shane blames Frank and his unhealthy habits for Maggie's untimely death, and calls him out for deciding to take her to a chicken wing Fan Convention instead of the hiking trip she was looking forward to. She reconsiders her words once she sees Frank in critical condition being rushed to the hospital in a fever-induced coma. | |

Osmosis Jones / int_e83f211c | comment |
O.O.C. Is Serious Business: Part of Bob's character is that he contributes to Frank's unhealthy habits. Heck, when Frank was showing onset symptoms of hyperthermia, his idea of "drinking fluids" was to urge Frank to drink beer. But when he notices his brother is feverish and delirious, he starts to show worry. And despite Mayor Phlemming insisting that Frank is "fine", Bob calls off the very roadtrip they had been planning for weeks. | |

Seeker White Blood Cells: The film anthropomorphizes the entire human body, giving all the various cells and such names and allowing them to speak and develop friendships with other cells. The white blood cells are treated like the police, so they get a lot of chase scenes with equally anthropomorphic pathogens. | |
