David Ghantt is a driver for an armored car company, well that is until he is tricked into stealing a bunch of cash by the girl he likes. After the robbery gets discovered he is framed for the whole thing. Steve, the mastermind behind the whole scam, sends David down to Mexico with a fake identity and promises to send him his cut of the robbery when things calm down. Instead of sending him money he sends down a hitman to kill him so no one finds out who really has all of the cash. When David finds out what really is going on all hell breaks loose and he is now desperate to get home to clear his name.

I thought that the film was entertaining but not a real laugh out load comedy. It was a good film to watch and it would cheer you up when your day is not going great but I was not in stiches through the whole film. However, Jason Sudeikis is what made the film for me. I was rolling in the aisles whenever he was one the screen.
