 | I enjoyed this film about a bounty hunter (Ice T) who chases a con man who keeps eluding him. When the con man wins the mega lottery and then loses his ticket (in the boat of a nasty villian) he tries to enlist the aid of Ice T to get it back. Unfortunately for him, Ice T does not believe him about the ticket and is not only interested in collecting the bounty for the con man and also recovering several million in diamonds that a bad guy has.
Eventually, Ice T starts to believe the con man and they somewhat work together but Ice T maintains a short leash on him until he can beat the villian and get the diamonds.
There are some really hilarious scenes and both Ice T and the con man put in excellent performances.
An overlooked gem that is as good as any of the Lethal Weapon films! |

 | THIS TIME, A BOUNTY HUNTER [ICE CUBE] WHO'S AFTER A SMALL TIME THUG [MIKE EPPS] WITH A WINNING LOTTERY TICKET, BOTH BECOME INVOLVED IN A DIAMOND SMUGGLING PLOT. HAS GOOD ACTION AND IT'S FUNNY. THIS TURNED OUT TO BE A GOOD RETEAMING FOR ICE CUBE AND MIKE EPPS AND IT'S BETTER THAN BOTH OF THE FRIDAY SEQUELS THEY DID TOGETHER. IF YOU LIKE ICE CUBE, GET THIS MOVIE NOW. |

 | Fun movie to watch. It's even ok to watch over again. I do have a question though. How in the world did Reggie survive all of the shots into the van? Was he was able to anchor himself to the top of the van while the Bucum was shooting? |

 | I thought the movie was okay. It's one I would watch once in a while. Mike Epps has some serious big screen potential if he continues to pick some decent roles, and does not get type cast. He and Ice Cube make a good team. Decent flick. |

 | I was hoping for a good, light-hearted laugh on a Friday after a trying week. I didn't get it with this film. I found the whole thing to be stupid, sexist and downright offensive. I don't think I'm going to be getting this one any time soon. I've seen better writing from twelve year olds! BTW, the bad guy in this is Scottish, not Irish! |
