Ruben Fleischer 30 minutes or less, the film is almost empty the uncertainty in his tone - whether it's how the events of the body slamming each other, and how they are difficult to fit alongside the life out of the screen. You see, it is inspired by the (very, very loosely), the story of Brian Douglas Wells, 46 years, Pizza drivers to communicate the driver, who was involved in a strange 2003 incident in which he was forced - under the remote control bomb related to the chest - to rob a bank and turn the money in his catchers. At first glance, this sounds like it could be the action / Heist / comedy potential, to find that Wells was killed when a bomb exploded, and proved to have been involved in (at least somewhat) with the design of the system . Regardless of the degree of his involvement, I can not imagine his friends and family is too much fun the decision to turn his misfortune to be quirky comedy of the summer.

The writer Michael Diliberti not just use an outline - some of the games themselves detail the reason for this flight, which was to finance the hiring of a hired murderer (played by Michael Peña) bordering the father (Fred Ward ) one of the hijackers (Danny McBride), who then inherit the family fortune. This is where the pizza man Nick (Jesse Eisenberg) is available, is called a remote location for delivery (in this version of history, not in the plan), attached to the bomb vest and said hit the bank and return the money. Nick is a loser without a goal, you just had an argument with his only friend, Chet (Aziz Ansari), but begs her boyfriend to help him get the job, which seems to be your only option.

This was the point where my movie going companion asked, not without reason, "Can not you just, uh, call the police?" And 'one of the big questions that the film clearly does not really want to answer, because the structural integrity of the whole image down to indulge in it, to Nick says that the kidnappers are watching, and that will explode the bomb, if it goes to the police, but in reality these idiots should not follow his phone? Look at his email address? He does not notice the big brown truck that followed him around the city? He could have put them and the police movie'd be more than thirty-minute mark.

Of course, the root problem, and we must all be willing to suspend our disbelief in a movie as stupid as this. But you need to make an informed decision to leave this distraction, and it is more difficult than the film goes, because the director Fleischer (Zombieland) does not make the right decisions about how to tell his story straight. In order for us to make logical leaps that the script requires, we must treat it as a real farce - quite difficult if you know the real story, stronger, when the danger and violence has been an (almost) immediately, and when the comedy turns discomfort from car chases and black as pitch.

But note that even if it is uncertain in its aims, it is a fun film. Most of the laughs come from the presence of Ansari, if Chet is not far from his usual comic character, but whether the measures of the lateral line and inappropriate tangents are welcome. Chet is a college professor, and the only one short scene of him in his classroom is funnier than any bad teachers? "You adult" in his great fight with Nick is childish funny (he asks, incredulous, "You've had. A Lunchables for dinner last night!") and his sidebar in a longer unhappy, fiscal irresponsibility of its Netflix using a murderer (and, let's face says). McBride and Nick Swardson as her co-create a dumb kidnapper-Guy inspired mainly in two acts, even if McBride would be wise to start changing his character just a regular contact, as it started to become monotonous.

Diliberti script and creates a few laughs out of the system purely situational spinning increasingly out of control by the time Pena and Ward have faced off, I remembered (positively) by the great comedy by Lawrence Kasdan unknown I t ' love to death.

This is not the only memory is 80 - and I must say, if you make a big crash violent car chase, at least have the common sense (as Fleischer did) to score with Glenn Frey "The heat is on . "Since this line begins sax, I was tempted to give me more of the film (as a selection of music similar reaction led to an escape perhaps too forgiving), due to an unreasonable affection for the 80 action / comedy. And these films are not very reliable either. However, there are often based on true stories unfortunate, an achievement that comes to the strange conclusion that the precipitate. 30 minutes or less do not know what the resolution would have been more successful - it really happened, or rather the insult, the ends left loose-giant-hanging, 'happy' we have here unfortunately. At this point, there is another irregular heartbeat, in an image that is quite everywhere.
