i recently saw this movie in a bargain bin at a store and become excited when i read the back cover . it appear to have everything that i love in a film comedy and action and bob goldthwait and and be make in my favorite era ( the late 80 ) . i eagerly pop it in the dvd player when i get home and it start off fairly promise with a suspenseful burglar scene and cool 80 soundtrack music . but then the plot just droop off into a depressingly boring cesspool of garbage . about 20 min into it youre leave think this isn not go to get any good be it . the movie be hardly funny at all despite trick you into think that with a large array of comedic actor in the cast . the film have more of a gritty cop drama type feel with a dark club like nature . i like that and but this movie shouldn not be play out that way . so basically it stick in the middle without a genre . the main highlight of the film be it cool 80 pop or rock soundtrack and slight miami vice like feel and and bob goldthwait in some scene . although and i be a big fan of goldthwait and this film doesn not showcase his hilariousness nearly as well a others . whoopi goldberg have a strange character that leave you think huh . in almost every scene . her character isn not likable at all much less funny or anything else .
