I heard most of the movie critics say that this movie was bad. Beyond bad. I mean, how great can a movie get when the getaway vehicle is an ice cream truck?!?
I wasn't going to see this movie in the theatres, guaranteed. But when a friend invited me over to see this flick I thought: "Hey, why not? Let's see how bad this movie really is." To tell you the truth, I thought it would be worse. But that isn't saying much. I don't know why Cuba Gooding Jr., after getting an award for Jerry Maguire, has taken such stupid roles in stupid films but I guess he only knows. The movie basically tells us that some devastating virus is wanted by some terrorists who want to threaten all mankind but two dimwits just seem to stop them every single time. The virus is in a container and can't reach a certain temperature or else it gets set off and everyone dies. Oh no, how scary. Gooding Jr. is able to take out professional killers by swerving his ice cream truck back and forth and driving like a maniac and Ulrich is able to take out the others in hand to hand combat. They always get away and, even though they look like the stupidest people on the face of the planet, they just outsmart the bad guys everytime. We all know how this movie ends up, good guy wins bad guy loses. Exciting? Not really. Boring? Kind of. A COMPLETE waste of money? I wouldn't go that far, but if your looking for an entertaining evening, look somewhere else.
