About
You may enjoy this if you like breezy, swaggering crime capers with jokes mixed into the danger, especially if titles like Let's Not Get Angry or Death of a Corrupt Man appeal to you; Not for you if you want strict realism or a tightly focused mystery.
Pros: charming lead presence; lively action-comedy mix; entertaining supporting cast | Cons: credibility takes a hit; messy, confused plot; hit-or-miss humor
