Once it gets going its very enjoyable, 6 January 2009

*** This comment may contain spoilers ***

Nice guy is set up for a murder when he discovers that the oil company he works for isn't on the level and is actually bilking the investors. Aided by the girl who loves him and a priest who's a friend he makes an escape from custody ending up as a boxer while at the same time trying to clear his name. Making very little sense at times, this film becomes an enjoyable romp thanks to some odd twists and great secondary characters all of whom show up about fifteen or twenty minutes in. Its at that point the film goes from something you've seen before and are likely to turn off to something you'll actually want to watch (possibly even again). What can I say I was amused by the mass of people all converging on the murdered man's office to "look for clues". Very much worth taking the time to see.
