Funny. What else would you expect from a movie starring Dave Foley?
"Today is the big day!" Dave had me cracking up right from the beginning. Already, you see that Nelson Hibbert can really be so WRONG!! The series of events implicating him are dark, but effectively funny. I guess his character is so clueless that it already adds the comedy ingredient throughout the film. Watch for Jennifer Tilly: her scenes with Foley are fun to watch. Good chemistry!
Some more standouts include the detective whose laidback, logic flawed, corrupt methods are surprisingly quite effective and humorous. The crazy driver guy has got to be the nut of the film...what a kook!! Oh, I must mention that the scene between Foley and Kevin McDonald is hilarious. Their timing is awesome and they feed off each other so well.
Overall, a dark comedy with a moral as well! Funny stuff.
