Jimmy's rare baseball card is robbed. Since it's his only hope to pay for his daughter's upcoming wedding, he recruits his cop partner Paul to track down the robber, a memorabilia-obsessed gangster.
After a clumsy operation trying to capture a drug dealer, the N.Y.P.D Detectives Jimmy Monroe and Paul Hodges are suspended for one month by their Captain Romans. Jimmy decides to sell his rare baseball card to pay for his daughter's expensive wedding while his jealous partner believes that his wife is cheating on him with their next-door neighbor. When Jimmy sells his card to a memorabilia store, the place is burgled by two small-time thieves and the detective loses his card. They track down the thieves.Written by

For Heaven's sake don't make it this one. Yesterday I had to spend two hours in the dentist chair getting a crown fixed. I found that a more entertaining and pleasant experience then watching this wretch of a film. What was Bruce Willis thinking? Is he that desperate for work and money! Tracy Morgan has got to be one of the least funny people I have ever seen in a movie. This man is supposed to be funny? I didn't laugh once but I cringed a lot watching his antics. This movie has no originality in it at all. Its like the writers tore up scripts from Lethal Weapon and other cop buddy films threw the torn pieces in the air and taped them together again as they came down! You know a movie is in big trouble when the main plot point is recovering a stolen baseball card! This movie has every cliché in the book. The script was so bad I wanted to cover my ears just hearing the actors recite their lines. Avoid this movie like the plague.
