If you like your crime comedy-thrillers full of quirky characters played by well-known actors, then you'll go for this comedy of misfortune centred on the theft of some ancient Chinese coins. Interested parties include an ex-porn magazine star cop (Salma Hayek), a teenage hit-man (Elijah Wood), an incompetent thief (Jeff Goldblum) and a hapless divorcing barber (Steve Zahn). The characters are a bit too wacky, maybe, but the comedy flows well.
