Flashy visuals, imaginative or no, can't help this pathetic, silly mess of a film. It is difficult for me to accept that this comes from the same director that gave us The Professional. A bad, bad movie that tries hard to be hip and fun, and fails miserably in both attempts. A thoroughly unacceptable, extended, and stomach-turningly boisterous intrusion by Chris Tucker, in the last 45 minutes or so of the film, further spoils what was already a rotten, convoluted, goofy effort.
