Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
A disgraced cop (Fishburne) and a hacker-with-a-heart (Baldwin) go on the lam in Georgia - first from jail-house nasties, then from cops and crims alike - while trading (witless) insults and punches. There's an intrepid local sheriff (Patton) who won't accept the official line; sinister expat Cubans with slicked hair and shades; a double-dealing superior (Burke) in the witness protection programme; and an accommodating driver (Hayek) whose car the boys co-opt, and who has to stop falling for cops. Add in elusive computer disks with vital info, regular soft-core violence, a baddy who won't stay dead, chases on foot, by car, truck, motorbike, and a cable-car finale. Lots of physical energy, but little else.Author: NB
