January 9, 2008if you didnt like this movie than your freakin crazy this is possibly the best movie ever made. I thought that there was an excellent mix of action and comedy. especially the part where the cop was dressed as a woman and the dude couldnt tell. i mean i found that hilarious. sure it was kind of stupid that he didnt know it was a dude but its a freakin movie and it cant get any better then this.
