Plot Summary
Sam Spade. Philip Marlowe. Joe Boone. You always remember the great detectives. Joe Boone? Well, he aspires to greatness. But right now he's more defective than detective. The time-honored world of the private eye gets a new spin in this quirky and very funny mockumentary. Miguel Ferrer plays Boone, a luckless P.I. prowling the L.A. underworld while young documentary filmmakers A.J. (John Livingston) and Wilton (rap star Mos Def) follow him with their camera rolling. Desperate to stay a step ahead of the bill collector, Boone recruits A.J. and Wilton to help with his cases. Now A.J. and Wilton are about to step from the reel-world of moviemaking into a real-life murder mystery.

Top Critics' Reviews
Rotten: Vacant yet convoluted.
Rotten: If it had a livelier pace and more believable acting by secondary characters ... Where's Marlowe? would be a big treat for audiences seeking a hip comedy.
Rotten: Where's Marlowe? was expanded from a TV pilot produced for ABC. Small wonder it never found its way on the air.
