Average action comedy with exceptional pair : Washington and Hoskins, 8 June 2006
5/10
Author: ma-cortes

The tale concerns about Mooney,a bigoted police officer(Bob Hoskins) from Los Angeles.He has problems with his captain police(Roger E. Mosley).He pursues a debonair,elegant though mobster black lawyer(Denzel Washington)called Stone whose slogan is live fully while you may reckon not the cost.When Stone is dating his ex-fiancée(Chloe Webb)is seen by Mooney.Soon afterwards he's shot and deceased and Mooney suffers a stroke.When he wakes ,the Stone's heart has been transplanted and his ghost is now his constant companion,hoping the cop will help to vengeance his killing .

The picture is a fantastic action comedy where there are suspense,humor,enjoyable romance,bemusing fantasy and is quite entertained.However the screenplay is sometimes ridiculous and with unlikely situations. Duo protagonist is good,acting Bob Hoskins in comic role as in Roger Rabbit(Robert Zemeckis) although he usually played dramatic personages(Monalisa);Denzel Washington is fine but his speciality are strong and tough characters . The production film is at charge of New Line Cinema(Robert Shaye),nowadays important producing with enormous success. The motion picture is regularly directed by James D. Parriott. The flick will like to Denzel Washington fans and fantastic comedy lovers. Rating : passable and amused
