How does the Tomatometer work Help Icon

Reviews Counted: 66

Fresh: 24

Rotten:42

Average Rating: 4.8/10

Consensus: Martin Lawrence lends his comedic touch, but the movie isn't much more than standard action-comedy fare.

Runtime: 1 hr 34 mins

Genre: Comedies

Synopsis: Lawrence stars as ex-con Miles Logan--a crafty jewel thief forced to hide his stash of diamonds at a construction site when his $20 million heist went awry. Now that he's out of the slammer, he wants the loot back! There's only one... Lawrence stars as ex-con Miles Logan--a crafty jewel thief forced to hide his stash of diamonds at a construction site when his $20 million heist went awry. Now that he's out of the slammer, he wants the loot back! There's only one problem--the place he hid them is now an L.A. police precinct. When he impersonates a badgeman to get close to his jewels, he winds up in the middle of robberies, drug busts and car chases with his unsuspecting rookie partner (Wilson). Which will happen first--Miles recovering his lost booty or gaining the respect of the police force for action in the line of duty? [More]

For all of his comedic efforts, though, Lawrence can't make this cubic zirconia into the jewel it wants to be.
