About
You may enjoy this if you like broad, silly crime comedies with mix-ups and loud personalities, somewhere in the lane of Corky Romano or Kangaroo Jack; Not for you if you want sharp jokes or likable characters.
Pros: some big laughs; chaotic premise; energetic cast | Cons: slow start; uneven humor; hard-to-like characters
