When a group of hitmen kidnap the goddchild of their boss all hell breaks loose.
This is plot for this awesome comedy/action thriller starring Mark Wahlberg, Christina Applegate and Antonia Sabato, Jnr.
This is a high-octane comedic look at hitmen - and what would happen if you double-crossed your boss. Turn up the sound on this one, sit back, and be amazed.
It's movies like this that show how good an actor Mark Wahlberg really is. 8.5/10
