Trivia
It was long rumored that Denzel Washington was allegedly talked into making this film by his agent. He also allegedly fired him shortly afterwards because of how terrible the reception for it was. However, in 2017 Washington's publicist was asked about this "fact" in a story on the movie at 'The Ringer' and stated for the record that the rumor was not and never had been true.

Goofs
When Mooney and Stone's mother are standing at the foot of the bed and Mooney opens his shirt, you can see Stone's mother's hand on his chest, but in the next shot, she is just now reaching for his chest.

An ok cop comedy

Not many shootouts no car chases but a few funny bits ok doesn't sound like the best film ever but its not that bad. Bob Hoskins plays detective Jack Mooney one night he has a heart attack and has to have a heart transplant sadly for him the heart of his worst enemy is the only one available.
