4/10
A literate burglar?...
12 January 2014
Warning: Spoilers
A husband and wife team of ex-Spies arrive in New Orleans on maternity leave with their baby girl. T

But they are hassled by muggers, the police and their FBI boss, who wants them to do just-one-more job.....

I don't know what this film is,and why it exists, but it does and its a really strange film. Quaid and Turner have been kidnapped, and been replaced by robots who have no personality and spout out inane one liners one after the other.

They become embroiled in some set up or another featuring Fiona Shaw with a silly accent, and all the while being chased by a wonderfully silly Tucci who wants revenge on Quaid because of a foiled mugging.

The film tries to be clever, but ends up just too weird for its own good. It's too dark for family viewing, but it's just too silly and immature for its target audience.

When this was released, Quaid and Turners stars were fading, and films like this didn't help them.

Well worth missing.
