i be shock to see all the positive comment on this movie . i be a major murphy fan and i can tell you it be contrive and and at best and silly . see other comment if you want to find out about the plot . the movie have that fast pace early 90 feel where the plot develop way too fast with too many minor character run around . you have see this movie so many time before only a series of exactly time and inconceivable coincidence would make it all work and ( hold onto your seat . ) it do . nothing be develop and reaction to the coincidence be silly . all exaggeration aside and it have as bad dialog and act a i have ever see by major actor . especially bad be joe don baker . it be almost worth rent just to see him deliver his exceedingly poorly write line poor guy . honestly and this movie be not funny and not entertain on any level . while not as bad a best defense ( be any movie . ) and there be a reason 1992 saw it come and go in just three week . if you like murphy and get trading place ( excellent ) and 48 hour or another 48 hour . if you like joe don baker and get charlie varrick ( amazing movie ) .
