No-one told me this would be a comedy but the giggles I got in the first 5 minutes should have given me a clue. I knew going in that there would be no real story line but I was hoping for some mindless fun at least – unfortunately, it was too mindless. Stunts were way over the top and as the movie went on they got bigger and stupider. Find a plot hole and throw in an explosion to solve it. I’m not entirely sure why Samuel “he’s sooo much better than this” L Jackson lent his support to this project. As for Ice Cube, replacing Vin Diesel was always going to be an interesting challenge. I’m sure that he was brought in to bring in the bling factor but unfortunately he did not handle the challenge well. All I saw was a scowl that should be registered as a weapon, big “guns” (ie. biceps) that made him appear to plod around like an ape, and a character that appeared to have absolutely nothing in between the ears. Ugh! Don’t waste your money.

Guest Review – Uncle Bobby:

This is the film in a nut shell; Ice cube goes around in a sulk because he is round shouldered and can’t get the wooden woman with a car fixation and big (exposed) boobs into bed. The acting comes straight Ikea and the dialogue could (and probably was) written by an Eskimo with a Spanish-english dictionary.

In a word – ‘no’.
