The plot got boring fifteen minutes into the movie, the character of Linda Moon really got on my nerves, and the cast seemed like they thought they were making another Pulp Fiction movie. The film was just pathetic. Two stars for Vince Vaughn's performance and Dwayne Johnson's right eyebrow.

Before Law Abiding Citizen, F. Gary Gray directed a star-studded comedy that has some funny moments, but overall doesn't pull off much, due to its long running time. John Travolta is excellent though, and The Rock as a gay bodyguard was hilarious.
