Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaDirector Mauro Borrelli was initially surprised that a producer suggested that he cast Martin Lawrence, a comedian, in this movie. However, when Borrelli met Lawrence, he liked the sound of Lawrence's voice and because of Lawrence's stand-up background and ability to remember two hours worth of comic material, Borrelli believed that Lawrence would be easy to work with.
- GoofsThe photo of Mary Kelly's father at his funeral was captioned "Elias Kelly". Mary Kelly's maiden name was Allen, as seen earlier on her marriage certificate, married to Dale Kelly, so obviously her dad would have been Elias Allen.
His name is very not important to the story. Neither helpful nor interesting.
Featured review
Calling this a weak copy of the Silence of the Lambs would be an understatement.
As a movie it sort of worked, it was okay-ish. Watchable. Proper production value, acceptable to moderately good acting. Semi decent script. But in general, it's a textbook illustration for the word "derivative". If it was a high school production from amateur film enthusiasts, I'd give it a stranding ovation. Really not even one original idea, just a collection of bits from much better works.
Still, as I said, it was not horrible. Certainly not good either.
Martin Lawrence was definitely a miscast. It was a commendable effort on his part to try and be serious, but he really could not pull it off. He has a great talent for comedy, but this just wasn't his cup of tea. Luckily, his shortcomings could not ruin the film much.
