I saw this last night courtesy of a friend's Sky booking. I really enjoyed it though the start was quite shocking as it didn't seem to fit with the trailers I'd seen.
It was a good pairing with fun plus car chases and 'violence' ...sometimes graphic.
Marks 8.5/10

Jarring mishmash of genres. Part thriller, part comedy, part buddy movie. Lots of violence and action set pieces which are actually well done, but if you follow this with comedy the violence needs to be cartoonish not graphic as it is here. The buddy aspect also does not work as there is little believable chemistry between the leads. Which leaves the comedy.... The only trouble is, it’s painfully unfunny. Actually painful, and embarrassing. Desperate mugging is a poor substitute for wit. All in all, something of a car crash.
