Purely Joyful Movie!

Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.

This movie is a waste. A waste of time, a waste of money and a waste of the actors involved.Chazz Palminteri has delivered a few really good performances in his career, a few excellent ones and Til Schweiger while not the greatest actor can usually do a well enough job.Not in this movie, with this script, with this dialogue.One more thing, one of the other reviewers has called this a typical Euro-Movie and that is complete nonsense.If any, it is an untypical Euro movie as it has no aspirations at all.Anyone who has any knowledge about European cinema would laugh at a classification like that.

Not going to waste more time on this, just to say it is genuinely one of the worst films I've seen.18 minutes in we get the dramatic uttering 'This matter needs to be dealt with swiftly, and with the utmost urgency'. That kind of sets the scene for the quality of dialog to come. And the acting is worse.If you read this review before seeing the movie, save yourself. I'm afraid to say I watched most of it, but only in that 'watching a slow motion train wreck' kind of way. It was genuinely bad. So bad you cant look away.And now the review helper says my review is too short. How much more of my life must I waste on this horror?

This is a movie about a bodyguard who has to protect somebody but can't do a worthwhile job of it.Like most action movies of this sort, it loses logic about 20 minutes in.The bad guys are too bad for their own good, but they look good in fancy suits and with nice weaponry.The good guys are too dumb - tough but dumb.Now, if I had to relocate a witness, I would not take them to places that would be popular or hot or known to anybody.I would throw them in back of a beat-up car, wearing rags and take them to some place that nobody would ever think of.They would listen to me or I would bust their teeth.However as in every other witness relocation/protection movie - logic is misplaced for what is supposed to be a story.The performances are bad, the story is bad and the action is also bad.However for a comedy, it's not too bad...if you want a little bit of action with your funny.With a whole bunch of useless and needless locations, scenes, action sequences and dialog as well as major plot holes - this could be one of the lost comedies that you may find interesting.The nightclub scenes are pretty interesting...walking around in ski masks in a nightclub and nobody notices.Brandishing weaponry across a dance-floor and nobody moves until gunfire is sprayed.Yep, it's the little things that can make a movie good or it's the little things that can make a movie horrible.This does the latter.

Wow. This is one of those movies that you knew what was going to happen and when even before you started to watch the movie. This movie was one long string of stereotypes that made it very predictableFoes working together even though they hate each other ... check Dying bad guy wants to redeem himself before he dies ... check Good guy has a traitorous superior ... check Dying bad guy wants to make up with wife and/or children ... check Femme fatale ... check comic sidekick ... check Bad guy redeems himself by sacrificing himself for good guy ... check All government agents are incompetent until end ... check all henchmen can not shoot straight ... check1 star for good backgrounds, 1 star for the hit-man's daughter
