This new take on the gangster-in-therapy genre made popular by Analyze This and TV's The Sopranos seems to have had a charisma bypass: Liam Neeson is just dull as the dyspeptic undercover cop thrown into counselling by one too many narrow escapes. And despite the best efforts of Oliver Platt to be psychotic as the hoodlum whom Neeson must befriend, it's all too deadpan. Sandra Bullock, who also produced, has little work as Neeson's girlfriend. Not half as smart or quirky as it should have been.
