It’s the mid 1980’s in the most crime ridden city of Australia. Only one man keeps the scales of justice even. Cowboy Detective, Lieutenant Jangles. After his partner is killed in a blazing shootout, Jangles goes on an explosive and blood soaked mission to avenge his death. His quest for vengeance unintentionally makes him the enemy of a mysterious new crime boss, who has been quietly taking over Brisbane City. When their paths finally cross, one thing is made clear, this town isn’t big enough for the both of them.

Reviews
Goofy parody/throwback to 80s action
"Goofy parody/throwback to 80s action flicks. Like most of these, it doesn’t all work, but at the same time there were some hilarious moments that more than made up for the ones that didn’t. Extras were also pretty stacked and I liked the artwork as well!"
— Kyle C. (3/5)
Weirdness galore
"Half man, half cigarette - what's not to like? I love this movie and am happy to finally own it physically. Great slip as well."
— Jakob P. (5/5)
Lieutenant Jangles
"Not quite as fun as Commando Ninja, but definitely a wonderful companion piece that will deliver a good time (with a little help from some consumables)."
— Andres P. (3/5)
Lieutenant Jangles
"A great blind buy when on sale. Very funny film."
— Ryan F. (5/5)
Lieutenant Jangles
"Def worth the watch. Im glad to have it"

Awesome Cop Parody Flick!
"The slipcover is as always when it comes to Vinegar Syndrome, absolutely banging! It is a cop movie parody and lampoon that has lots of action, and lots of laughs throughout! It kept me entertained from beginning to end, and the peerless VS restoration process of sound and vision made it super enjoyable! I highly recommend this one!"
— Paul K. (5/5)
Bird up, Cowboy down
"My brother was ill prepared going in (except for copious amounts booze) so when Jangles starts pissing all over the movie it set off a chain reaction to us, one hogging the br while me diving in the backyard to unleash tidal waves of yellow in the glow of the big Luna up above. Movie is hilarious, some I know disagree. I piss on that sentiment, respectfully."
— Derek T. (5/5)
A blast!
"Full on fun! Just buy it."
— Brett C. (5/5)
Lieutenant Jangles: Part Man, Part Cigarette all Australian
"An over the top action comedy making fun of 80´s action movies. Inventive as no budget movies often are, a fun ride. Lots of extras and plays on region B players as well. Lieutenant Jangles: Part Man, Part Cigarette all Australian"
— Hansi L. (5/5)
Over the top
"Over the top cheese. Great watch with friends. Great watch alone. Lots of laugh out loud moments that leave you shaking your head."
— Dennis H. (5/5)
