    Willie &criss figuring it out Texas style
    The great movie you have really and Chris playing a Texas ranger and a safe tracker xcon Of course Willie is the xcon safe cracking slide of hand charming outlaw and Chris's is rip the Texas ranger worried father of two daughters trying to catch a sick serial killer that's to close to home . They roll around the central Texas hill country finding evidence tracking down leads before the killer strikes again when they end up in a biker bar an willie teaches the bikers how to play tough pool and ends up with a old Canon ball safe he cracks and finds out the real reason the leader of the pack wasn't wanting him to open the safe.

    Its a fun movie and if your a nelson or stoferson fan then you'll enjoy and have a few laughs . And it's me on the bike in front of the biker bar had a great day as a extra.
