I've always enjoyed the work of Christopher Titus and in this film he does not disappoint. The humor is slightly irreverent, but funny. The main plot involves a police department having to create a unit of police officers with disabilities due to the fairness in disabilities act. Titus plays a screw-up cop who ends up in charge of this "Special Unit".

The movie is funny without making fun of people with disabilities and the production hired several disabled actors to appear in the film.

The always enjoyable Billy Gardell shows up as the police captain, and we get a great performance from the late Debbie Lee Carrington is wonderful in this film.

The real star here is Christopher Titus, who wrote, directed and started in the movie and managed to make a great film that holds up to repeat viewing.

If you like funny, off-beat humor or are a fan of Christopher Titus's stand-up you will love this movie.

Definitely not leaving any spoilers behind because I'd rather have people watch this for themselves. I just have to say that since we're not going to get to see any Al Bundy's down humor anymore or humor like this movie provides. On account of the fact that our delicate thin-skinned little Snowflake culture we've cultivated will no longer allow us to have a laugh. I am considered disabled. I feel that every once in a while we have to enjoy a little bit of dark humor or even humor that is completely inappropriate. This whole movie is completely inappropriate. But, it's intended to be. We just need to be able to laugh at ourselves more. If we can't learn to do that then we're already more disabled than we think.

I stumbled upon the 2017 movie "Special Unit" by random luck. I picked it up and it seemed like a comedy that could be really good, so of course I sat down to watch the movie.

While "Special Unit" was watchable, it wasn't really a particularly outstanding, memorable or overly funny comedy from writer and director Christopher Titus. Sure, the movie definitely had its moments and there were some funny scenes. But this is not the type of comedy that will have you toppled over laughing so hard you'll have tears streaking down your cheeks.

The story was adequate although it seemed fairly out there at times, but in overall it was working out well enough for what it turned out to be.

As for the acting, well I will say that the actors and actresses in the movie actually performed quite well, taking into consideration the limitations placed on them from the script and storyline.

"Special Unit" is the type of comedy that you will watch once, if you don't get offended by the comedic jabs at disabilities throughout the movie and the portrayal of disabled people, but it is hardly a movie that you will watch more than once.

I feel that "Special Unit" ended up as a mediocre comedy. It did entertain adequately, but it just had too many shortcomings for it to be an outstanding movie, and it just never managed to move out of the mediocre sandbox. I am rating "Special Unit" five out of ten stars. It is a feel-good movie, but it was just lacking on the comedy parts.
