There are some spoilers here.
The first 45 minutes or so of this movie show much promise. Two plastic, wannabe bad boys owe $12,000 to a mysterious black dude and invent a clever scam in order to raise the cash. They decide to set up a Doctor (yes, the English guy from Cheers) with a woman and film them having sex. They then blackmail the English guy from Cheers and warn him that they'll show the video to his wife unless he hands over a very large sum of money (at least $12,000 for starters).
Things appear to be going reasonably well for the two bad-guys as they hold the English guy from Cheers hostage at his house and attempt to withdraw the money from his bank account. But then, in a very well-staged scene, the English guy from Cheers is revealed in a totally different light. This twist in itself is very clever and is revealed in a very casual manner which takes one by surprise. But from this promising plot development the movie then subsides into unintentional hilarity. Everybody ends up trying to double-cross everyone else, and, most ridiculously of all, the mysterious black dude that I mentioned, to whom the $12,000 was originally owed, is revealed as a Snoop-Doggy lookalike with a zimmer frame (I kid you not).
There is a final shoot-out which is handled very badly by the directors and the impression one gets is that the scriptwriter had a very good idea, with a clever twist, but just didn't have a clue about how to expand this to a more sensible conclusion. 4/10
