The one reason to see this movie is to experience Tucker, who is as funny and energetic as ever in this somewhat daft attempt at a buddy-comedy action flick. Sheen and Tucker have too little chemistry to pull it off, and the whole thing just winds up being carried entirely by Tucker's great performance, which is the only thing in the film worth mentioning. The plot is good enough, I guess, but it seems like it was mainly just written to do a buddy comedy pairing up Tucker and Sheen, and comes off as a little forced. The film has a decent pace, but the main reason for watching the whole thing is, you guessed it, Tucker's performance(which is disappointing, since Sheen and Locklear both are known to be humorous and entertaining in other productions). The acting ranges, and at best is pretty good. Pretty much everyone but Tucker seem a little bored with their roles, and don't do very much to bring their characters to life. The characters are well-written and mostly credible. I did find the mix of characters somewhat humorous and thought out, even if a few of the major characters seemed to be clichés or stereotypes. The humor is pretty good, though some of it seems a little forced. Most of Tucker's scenes are good, though, and he mostly manages to entertain you. The dialog is fairly well-written and entertaining. All in all, for a failed attempt at a buddy comedy, it's decent. Tucker's performance pushes it just above average. The action is decent, as well. I recommend it exclusively to fans of Chris Tucker. 6/10
