Eugene Levy and Samuel L. Jackson have some funny moments.
You put the comic talents of Eugene Levy and Samuel L. Jackson together and it would seem to spell comedy gold.

Unfortunately the film is as generic as they come, and rather unfunny.....they deserved a better script.....The obvious differences in their two personalities are the driving force behind the film, and not the plot machinations, which ultimately doom this film.....The two actors have a good onscreen chemistry.... ...
