AnhartLinkin This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

Joanna Mccarty Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

Mehdi Hoffman There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.

Winifred The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.

lucy-wainwright-827-448455 I watched this film purely because I'm a Liam Neeson fan and couldn't resist the opportunity to perv on him in a lead role for an hour and a half. I completely expected the film itself to be total dross, the kind of unmemorable, bland "comedy" I associate (fairly or otherwise) with Sandra Bullock.Actually I have to say that Bullock felt a bit wedged in; they needed a love interest for Neeson's character, but she didn't need to be a big name - in fact, I think it might have been better if they'd taken on a relative unknown, as it would have saved this actually-quite-good comedy from being billed as a "Sandra Bullock Romantic Comedy", thereby alienating a large proportion of the people who might otherwise have wanted to watch it.Bullock's character is very bland and does not seem to have required her to wake up at any point during filming - the kind of character film-makers would probably describe as "kooky", but which the rest of us find moderately endearing to start with, edging towards slightly irritating by the end of the film. The only matter of real interest in Bullock's role lay in trying to work out what precisely was supposed to be so "special" about her - her unusual way of meeting Neeson's character could only carry her so far.Neeson, meanwhile, was far more entertaining. I am biased, but I've seen Neeson play some godawful parts (Clash of the Titans springs to mind) and this was a decent effort. A former golden-boy DEA agent who seeks psychiatric help and gets into group therapy because he's suffering from PTSD and "acute intermittent flatulence" had the potential to get pretty gimmicky, but he balances it well and saves Charles from becoming a mere caricature. I actually think Neeson doesn't get enough credit as a comic actor, and he and Oliver Platt (who comes as a bit of a surprise if the last thing you saw him in was "Beethoven") bounce very well off each other.There's a few cheap laughs that feel a bit tacked on, like Columbian badass Fidel turning out to be in a relationship with his lisping, one- balled bodyguard, but fortunately the makers have had the sense not to labour these points and they remain just surprising and mildly amusing minor elements against the backdrop of a good cast and a decent comic premise.Worth seeing, just try to ignore Sandra Bullock as she's nowhere near as central as you'd expect and feels a bit unnecessary. The only comparison that springs to mind in terms of misguided marketing is Blow Dry - an excellent film with a fantastic cast that they tried to market off the back of its two weakest actors and the worst attempt at a Yorkshire accent in history.

curtb2009 The script flows along very well as Liam Neeson plays Charlie Mayeaux, an undercover cop who has lost his nerve. Neeson really balances the dramatic parts with the humorous parts, and pulls it off without a hitch. It's nice to see his lighter side after so many dramatic parts.Oliver Platt plays gangster wannabee Fulvio Nesstra to perfection and he's s scene stealer. Platt has never been funnier ... this could be his defining role as an actor.This is just a cleverly crafted movie, nicely directed by Eric Blakeney, that is smart and funny. This is a must-rent DVD and would be a nice addition to any DVD collection.

Knox Bronson I was half-enjoying this movie on cable TV until we got to the scene where Liam (who is apparently a chronic farter in the movie) is getting some kind of enema action from Sandra Bullock ... she has some squeeze-bulb action going on ... and the music playing is "It's a Man's World" by James Brown ... this is an abomination. It is blasphemy. It is a crime. What unbelievable bad taste. Imagine that, coming out of Hollywood.i don't have much more to say, but I guess IMDb doesn't allow short, succinct posts. so blah blah blah watched the Cockettes documentary today, found a great andy warhol superstar website, played with new kitties, cooked dinner ... this should fill it out enough ...and I hope the children of the man responsible for putting James Brown in a Sandra Bullock enema scene live in interesting times.

jotix100 No wonder Charlie, the man at the center of the film is suffering from the pressures of his job. He has too many things to worry about and all his problems affects his stomach functions producing funny noises at the worst moments. What's an undercover man to do? He gets involved more deeply into trying to do a decent job and in the process, he falls in love with the woman who understands what has to be done to relieve his symptoms.Erik Blakeney has written and directed a film that should have been seen by a wider audience, yet, this movie came and went without fanfare. It deserved a better fate because of the funny screen play Mr. Blakeney created and the wonderful cast that was gathered for the picture. The problem seems to have been in the marketing. This is clearly not a Sandra Bullock vehicle at all!Liam Neeson and Oliver Platt are about the best thing going for the movie. Liam Neeson's Charlie is one of the funniest roles he has done in his career. Mr. Neeson tends to gravitate toward more dramatic fare, but as Charlie, he proves he is an accomplished comedian. The same goes for Oliver Platt who plays a bad guy interested in domestic activities such as cleaning a messy kitchen, or even thinking about a life in Italy growing tomatoes.The minor roles are equally good. Jose Zuniga and Micahel DeLorenzo are hilarious as a pair of gay drug dealers. Sandra Bullock doesn't get as many opportunities in the movie, but she is seen in the pivotal role of Judy. The group therapy sessions involving Charlie and other law enforcing people are fun to watch.Erik Blakeney shows he can do good work if only he could have the right studio people behind him.
