      Amos: I told you the Ghost was not to be shared. This is real life, Samuel. People could get hurt.

      Sam Larson: You read my book.

      Amos: Of course I read the book. I thought we were friends.

      Sam Larson: I'm really sorry. I changed the details. It was supposed to be fiction.

    This is a good movie, watch it!

    Obviously it's not great, but it's definitely totally fine, give it a watch!

    I love Kevin James, I'll watch anything with this guy in it. Do you like other movies with Kevin James? Because this is another one. The action is well done and I laughed out loud a few times. There are worse ways to spend a Friday night, I promise.

    Kevin James is a writer who people think is actually an assassin but he's so good at writing he becomes the assassin. Someone truly zany came up with this one and it's laugh out loud wild ride funny. It also happens to be shot super nice, which is a total plus!

    Seriously, it's on Netflix streaming right now, what are you waiting for?!
