Charlie Sheen's run of bad luck - or bad judgement - just goes on and on. Witness this numskull action comedy, in which his bemused smiles replace acting as a TV newsman who befriends a conman (Chris Tucker) wrongly accused of mass murder during a jail break. The clichés pile as high as an elephant's eye, but then so do the crashed cars, corpses and killed cops. The action sequences are as botched as the jokes, and the performances are hilariously misjudged, with Dynasty's Heather Locklear lost as Sheen's love interest and fine actor Paul Sorvino wasted as her dad. As Bob Dylan said: 'Money doesn't talk, it swears.'
