NOTHING TO LOSE is Martin Lawrence's finest hour and is really one of the very few films to showcase his comedic talent. Lawrence plays a jobless carjacker who meets a depressed executive (Tim Robbins) who is having a very bad day. The two team up for a wild adventure consisting of robberies, car chases and other encounters while being pursued by not only the police, but two rival criminals as well. While the chemistry between Lawrence and Robbins is quite strong, the highlight of the film is Lawrence at home getting his face smacked repeatedly by his mother. Simply put, this is Martin Lawrence's best movie.

When I went to see this movie in the theaters, I wasn't expecting too much. I was expecting to see a decent comedy with an occasional chuckle with some good lines.
What I wound up seeing was a hilarious film with consistent laughs throughout. I loved it. Lawrence and Robbins were well cast and worked well together. If you get a chance, check this one out.

Nothing to lose is about having lost everything (or at least believing so) and there is no lower spot you cannot hit. Geting there however you really that when you hit the botom there is nowhere to go but up!!!
Good story and cast, excellent playing by them all, funny and hillarious from start to finish this is a must for comedy lovers.

This movie surprised me how entertaining it was. It's simple like most other mismatched buddy-flicks but this movie has a certain bit of extra, which not in the least thanks to its fine solid cast.
Thank goodness it's not the type of comedy that forces its humor upon people. The comedy of the movie is more in the chemistry between Martin Lawrence and Tim Robbins. Yes, it sounds weird but Tim Robbins and Martin Lawrence are really a great screen duo, with some nice comedy chemistry, that get themselves into some fun trouble when by coincidence embarking on a sort of road-trip together. Like in all road-movies, some crazy characters pop-up. The most sensational one's in this movie are being played by John C. McGinley and Giancarlo Esposito, who form a criminal-duo. The diversity of John C. McGinley as an actor is amazing. Just look at the list of movies he has done and the characters he has played.
But the greatest power of the movie is the chemistry between the two main actors and their individual comical skills. Tim Robbins is a great serious actors, who just happens to like doing comedies as well from time to time. But on top of that he also really has talent for the genre. He knows how the deliver the lines in the right way and knows how to time his moments. Martin Lawrence also has been the sort of comical-actor who fun with his dialog. As a stand-alone actor and when he needs to carry a movie on his own he just isn't good enough but when he teams up with another great comical actor (for example as was the case with Will Smith in "Bad Boys"), he's truly at his best and most fun to watch.
The story unfolded nicely and slowly. Nothing got forced and things just happened as they came along, such as always is the case in road-movies. It at the same time also makes the movie surprising, or at least not as predictable or formulaic as most other comedies. The movie has a couple of greatly build-up moments, some more subtle than the other, but always fun and in some cases even hilarious to watch. Look out for Irma P. Hall as Martin Lawrence's character's mother! It's true that the movie doesn't live up to its fine fast paced start but nevertheless the movie remains fun to watch throughout.
It's a movie surprisingly well worth seeing!

A bit silly, but the good kind of silly, with enough credibility to make it believable. Most of all it is FUN and that is all I needed.
It's the "let's laugh at other people's misery" kind of fun, because Tim Robbin's wife has an affair and right after discovering that he gets mugged by Martin Lawrence. Things go way out of control after these 2 characters butt heads, with lots of great race and class struggle jokes.
The good: great chemistry between Tim Robbins (serious) and Martin Lawrence (silly). Good jokes and good timing of the jokes as well. Spot on.
Any bad? It's quite a bit silly, but it's still serious enough though to be an enjoyable comedy for the entire family, from young to old, everybody could enjoy it.
Seen it several times over the past decades now and the jokes and the characters still stand strong...

- QuizSteve Oedekerk: The director is the dancing security guard in the movie; also did a sing-along.
- BlooperRig and Charlie steal a station wagon and are later seen driving their old car which was shot.
- Curiosità sui creditiAfter the credits are finished, a mailman brings a letter to the hillbilly whose gas station was robbed. The letter is marked "Hillbilly Motherfucker", just as T. called him in the movie. Inside is a few hundred dollars cash. In the cut version this is changed to "Hillbilly at the gas station".
- Versioni alternativeIn the Australian free to air version, during the confrontation with the rival criminals, Martin Lawrence yelling "Shut the fuck up" is badly censored to "Shuck up". Interestingly, other uses of the word "fuck" are still intact.
