Featured review
Jimmy The Tulip Tudeski (Bruce Willis) is hiding in Mexico and spending his days as a homemaker. Jill (Amanda Peet) is itching to kill and can't take their lives together. Crazed mob boss Lazlo Gogolak (Kevin Pollak) has just been released from prison. He comes looking to kill the paranoid Oz Oseransky (Matthew Perry) and find where Jimmy is to avenge for killing his son Janni. Lazlo kidnaps Oz's newly pregnant wife Cynthia (Natasha Henstridge). Oz goes to Mexico to beg Jimmy and Jill to rescue Cynthia from Lazlo. Jimmy doesn't want to help but Lazlo comes shooting anyways.
I found Kevin Pollak not funny and very annoying. It lost the very limited charm of the original. It tries so hard to be wacky that it stumbles into an unwatchable mess. Everybody is trying to out-crazy the other. More than anyone, the jittery Matthew Perry personifies the overacting that is happening here. Amanda Peet is also jittery taking a page out of Perry's playbook. Even Bruce Willis is going crazy. It's too much and worst of all it's not funny.

Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe Buttercup girl is played by Bruce Willis's daughter, Tallulah Willis.
- GoofsWhen Lazlo tears the bill apart in the beginning of the film, the tear forms more or less rectangular pieces. The pieces, which were put together in the end of the film, are triangular and the tear meets exactly the corners of the bill, what was actually not the case as the bill was parted.
- Quotes
Lazlo: You locked my son in the trunk?
Nicholas 'Oz' Oseransky: No! No, sir. He locked himself in there.
Lazlo: [pause] This I believe.
