i be not go to go into too much depth and but showtime be a pretty funny movie . there wasn not any slap your knee funny scene ( that i can remember ) and but it have it moments . the cast be pretty good and robert de niro be good a usual and eddie murphy pull off a pretty funny performance . rene russo be just fine in the film and no complaint there . there be two character in the story that i like that they do not explain much at all . the first one be trey sellars ( eddie murphy ) buddy at the gym play by ken campbell . i suppose he be just a friend of trey and but i want to know more about him . the other character that i like be mitch preston ( robert de niro ) fellow cop or partner play by nestor serrano . i guess he be just another cop work with mitch preston and but i want to know if he be his partner or what not . i think maybe i be put too much think into a movie and i mean after all and it a comedy . who care about the character . i guess i do though . i be really pleased to see this be direct by tom dey and who also direct shanghai noon . ever since i saw that movie i be look forward to his next work . i think he do a pretty good job with this film and and i again look forward to his next work . all in all and it be a good movie and but i wouldn not recommend pay full price for a ticket unless youre a die hard robert de niro or eddie murphy or rene russo fan . it be worth see in the theater and but not for full price and i would recommend see it at matinee price . also and here some movie trivia for ya . the guy who play the camera man and play by judah friedlander be the guy in the music video everyday by dave matthew band . he be also the clerk in meet the parent and also star robert de niro . . and on top of that he also play derek zoolander brother in zoolander ( both zoolander and meet the parent star ben stiller ) . just some useless trivia for ya . i hope you enjoy the film . thanks for reading and chris .
