Un Vecino Más Peligroso

This black comedy concerns a notorious hit-man named John 'the Tulip' (Bruce Willis) , he's living retired when his previous neighbor Nicholas Oz (Matthew Perry) asks him for help. His wife Cynthia (Natasha Henstridge) has been kidnapped by the Hungarian mobster named Lazlo (Kevin Pollack) and looking for revenge . Lazlo sends his son Strabo (Frank Collison) , but he's abducted by Johnny (Willis) , Jill (Peet) and Oz (Perry) .

This attractive film made in screwball style displays black comedy, plot twists , laughters , turns , giggles and a little bit of action. Casting is frankly well . Matthew Perry as a mild-mannered and miserable dentist is nice . Amanda Peet is very amusing as a wanna-be hit-woman and fan of the actual murderers . Furthermore, a cool Kevin Pollack with abundant make-up and a sympathetic grandmother with flatulence . Adequate music score by John Debney and colorful cinematography by Dennis Weaver , no confusion with TV actor , recently deceased. The motion picture wes well directed by Howard Deutch . He's a sequels expert ,he has made three in which he didn't shoot the original (The odd couple , Grumpiers old men and this one) and comedy specialist (Pretty in pink , Great outdoors and My best friend's girl). This farcical comedy with similar ingredients to original will appeal to Bruce Willis and Matthew Perry fans. Rating : Acceptable, passable but inferior to original entry.

THE WHOLE TEN YARDS (2004) Bruce Willis, Matthew Perry, Kevin Pollock, et al

This is one more example that 'More is NOT Better'! Nine Yards was entertaining, the jokes worked. Ten Yards is so bad that we walked away before the ending.

Although the same cast returns for this second bout, this one is boring, with loud yelling throughout, no chemistry, a waste of talented actors, and, a waste of our money.

Reading other comments, apparently some folks liked it. We give it a portion of one star. Our recommendation: Save your money, or wait until it's free and you have absolutely nothing better to do.

This film is about a dentist's wife getting kidnapped, and he has to find another hit-man to rescue his wife.

I remember "The Whole Nine Yards" being really funny. It's a few years since I last saw it, but I still remember it being entertaining and witty. I hoped "The Whole Ten Yards" to be the same, but I was disappointed. I find this film very silly. Basically it involves Matt Perry acting very silly all the time, which gets annoying after ten minutes. So by the time the film is half way through, it already is boring. Bruce Willis' transformation into a family man is over the top and not funny. Amanda Peet's character is the only one that is slightly more normal, but her alone is not enough to carry the film. I find "The Whole Ten Yards" only marginally entertaining, and very disappointing.

When Oz's (Matthew Perry) new wife Cynthia (Natasha Henstridge) is captured by the mob, he is no one else to turn to but his old friend Jimmy the Tulip (Bruce Willis). Teaming up with Jimmy and his new wife (Amanda Peat), Oz experiences another crime filled adventure with the mob.

Although not nearly as funny or as exciting as the original, The Whole Ten yards will surely entertain…for the most part. About half of the movie is clever and entertaining and would have deserved my recommendation, but the twist at the end is terrible and made the movie seem worthless. After the twist, follows a ridiculous display of events that are horrible, making the movie in my opinion a failure but still not absolutely terrible. Overall, the movie follows in the footsteps of an entertaining comedy but falls short of what could have been.

I do not recommend this film.

As a sequel to The Whole Nine Yards, this film was a disappointment. Bruce Willis and Matthew Perry reunite as the retired Mafia Hit-man and the nervy dentist, as does Amanda Peet as the aspiring hit woman. The thing is this time around the acting wasn't that great. Willis is usually good with comic timing but it isn't there here, while Peet looks bored. Only Perry really stands out, his slapstick schtick makes me want to watch an episode of Friends pretty much.

The film is stylishly shot, and has a good soundtrack, and there is evidence of some solid pacing. However, the plot is very contrived, the direction haphazard and the script weak. So overall, this film was a disappointment, it wasn't completely awful but I would be lying if I said it was great. 4/10 Bethany Cox
