Viewing Location: Secaucus |
Grade: B |
Summary: More goofy than anything, but hey, get some popcorn & enjoy. |
Tim Robbins plays an overworked ad executive who comes home to find his
wife in bed with his boss, and so he freaks out. Martin Lawrence plays
a would-be carjacker who becomes a kidnap victim as Robbins ignores the
gun to his head and takes off for the desert. The movie is an amusing,
light-hearted character study that doesn't take itself very seriously.
So, this isn't another "Falling Down"; although I'm sure Robbins would
have been up to it. He just didn't get the right team. So instead it
turns into more of a feel-good movie.
