I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

i thought this movie was very well written. also it was very funny,no gags or slapstick just very funny situation humor. Minnie Driver looked very pretty in this movie and seeing her in this role is natural. Mary McCormack is very good too- seeing her do English accents was good. even though the two lead roles are females- i do not think this would be classified as a chick-flick- there is plenty of laughs- and a good plot-to keep you in the story. the supporting cast was also wonderful, their acting was not complicated but yet they as actors did enough to make their characters come to life. i only wish i could of written this review earlier. because maybe there would have been an even better sequel.

I had no expectations surrounding this work, as I had no exposure to ads, trailers, etc before my initial viewing, so this was a cold viewing, which is rare for me.There are two impressive elements with this film. The first is Michael Gambon. If he was making the attempt to counter any type-casting associated with his Harry Potter character, Albus Dumbledore, he was 100% successful. This performance is gritty, hard, and even rough. But he is also great in this role.The second impressive element is the story itself. It generates enough intrigue to hold your interest. Usually with a plot such as this one, I need some suspense to do that, but this story generates the interest enough without the suspense. I found that refreshing.This work is a bit reminiscent of the feeling found in Things To Do In Denver When You're Dead, though lacks the same intensity.All in all, I was intrigued and thoroughly entertained.It rates a 6.8/10 from...the Fiend :.

Saw this movie for the first time today after checking out the review here and I must say it is a hidden gem. The plot is nice, the characters are easy on the ears and eyes and the action and comedy are well intertwined. The directors have gone a different perspective in this action comedy and have delivered a combination of The Long Kiss Goodnight meets The Pink Panther....hard to believe but it works. The situations the leads find themselves in are extremely engaging but the beauty of the movie is the banter that takes place between the two..very Sienfeldish.There are humorous moments from beginning to the end but the end is definitely to die for..Treat yourself to a good movie and take the time to watch this; you'll be glad you did. It's a winner.

Just delightful. An undiscovered gem (cubic zirconium?). Minnie Driver and Mary McCormack are a sharp and natural comic team. Unexpected touches of humor, excellent character actors, good plot. Oh, just watch it and enjoy yourself. I guarantee you will be quoting some of the better lines afterward.How many movies give you a rabbit who is apparently immune to machine gun fire (aside from Bugs Bunny)?Where else can you see Minnie Driver blasting a machine gun and laughing madly?And if you loved Mary McCormack in The West Wing... watch her suffer with a hangover while doing voice-overs for an animated alien tomato... (we've all been there, right?)
