 | This polar opposite pairing of Tim Robbins and Martin Lawrence was a brilliant one. It shows you Tim Robbins has range and Martin Lawrence is one of the funniest men of all-time. This movie has some funny scenes such as when Tim Robbins and Martin Lawrence go to steal flash lights and the old guy lets them steal them, when Tim Robbins dances to avoid the fire, when Tim Robbins keeps flicking off the camera, when Tim Robbins destroys the fertility statue, when the security dances for like 2 hours with Martin Lawrence hiding under the table saying white people, and Tim Robbins saying I'm married and stopping the bad guys. So many laugh out loud scenes. A must get for Tim Robbins and Martin Lawrence fans! |

 | Tim Robbins plays a man who thinks he's discovered his wife having an affair with his boss. He meets up with Martin Lawrence when Lawrence trie to car jack him. They end up working as a team to rob Robbins' boss. Then they find out his wife isn't having an affair after all and he has to try to fix things. This is an amiable enough movie but has no real laugh out loud scenes and Lawrence plays the same mugging boob he always plays and his act gets old fast. |

 | Take Tim Robbins. Add one tarantula, mix it with gasoline-soaked loafers, a book of matches, Martin Lawrence with a camcorder and the "Scatman" song. What do you get? One of the most physical comic moments in cinema history! |

 | Yep. That's about it. I rate it four stars because the laugh out loud scenes are very, very good and there were four or five of them. The end is obvious and the middle is more than a little wierd with the revenge-seeking bad guys (it's almost like the director is trying too hard to make it surreal) but somehow the movie works.
Definitely do not watch this movie with children - there are tremendous amounts of vulgar language, including a funny scene in which everyone is screaming obscenities and no one is paying a bit of attention. |
