Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

What makes it different from others?

The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

This one is a "I've had a rubbish day I'm gonna eat a worm" staple for me. Yes, it's funny, and yes, in an obvious, non-intellectual, loud and very American sort of way. Tim Robbins is a serious actor but in this he lets his hair down starring along side Martin Lawrence.Martin Lawrence churns these sorts of films out every five minutes, but when this movie was released, he was still riding reasonably high from Bad Boys two years prior. But, casting Robbins in this was a really strange move. He'd just directed Dead Man Walking, and was still fresh from that prison movie (to be fair, the audience this was aimed at, probably had only just seen Shawshank on video when this was released). And it's a really curious movie, not really funny, and it has a really depressing edge to it. Robbins is wonderful in his role, and just looks like he's having a lot of fun, doing this for some release from all the seriousness. There is an interesting twist at the end (all comes out in the wash scenario), with lots of comedy sketches in between. Overall, the mix between comedy and story is well balanced, will keep you laughing until the very last scene.Overall rating: 7 out of 10.

Nothing to Lose is another one of these mismatched buddy comedies. As one actor is black and the other is white there is also a whiff that it was offered to Eddie Murphy who turned it down before Martin Lawrence was cast.Robbins plays a man who finds his wife cheating and it spirals into a bad day as he encounters carjacker Lawrence but Robbins has nothing to lose and has a death wish and hence begins a road trip with Lawrence getting involved in hold ups and then they encounter two other more ruthless outlaws who pursues them back to Los Angeles.The comedy and some of the scenes are rather corny and its also patchy. Lawrence although successful in comedy films has always been a little irritating and Eddie Murphy lite to me. Maybe its the scripts he gets or maybe as an actor he has limited range.Robbins does dramatic well and also throws himself into the slapstick such as his shoes catching fire. However he also has had misfires in the past when he tried his hand in comedy films, remember Howard: The Duck!There is some nice music especially the end title song but the film also wants to crow bar a social message as Lawrence is educated, clever, resourceful but unable to get a job and reduced to a life of crime. Not sure that works.

This movie was excellent and funny as hell... Seriously see this movie, i bought this one at a used DVD shop thinking it may be worth a watch. and I was pleasantly surprised by how funny this movie was. Basically: Awesome acting especially by Lawrence, Robbins and McGinley. Awesome script, Steve Oedekerk had to be high or something. It's so delightfully random but the again standard comedy that we can all enjoy.The scene with the security guard and his 2 hours of dancing (Just watch the film!)Pretty sure it's "ONE" of the funniest movies I have ever seen.

Buddy movies are a dime a dozen, but when they work they work. The brilliant Tim Robbins and a surprisingly tolerable Martin Lawrence really go nicely together, it's just fun to see them get into well, let's say wacky adventures or something. The movie's consistently funny, but it also works very well in its dramatic parts. Some bits might be rather corny, but the scenes in T's apartment are just genuinely touching. Also at some point Tim Robbins is dancing around with his shoes on fire while that song "Scatman" is playing. If that can't earn a movie a good grade, I seriously don't know what can. Overall this is a very witty and God save us all, heart-warming movie.
