_"You have one thing money and practice can't buy - you look like a nice guy."_ Halfway through I wasn't sure if I was into this but I am glad I stuck through with it because the third act was worth it. You can't trust anyone and the twists are great. Diego Luna is also so likeable!

Reviews
The problem is that John C Reilly is a guy you'd give your bag to. This film lacks cynical prick with a face you'd love to punch. I've seen too many generic city 5s. Fun story. Cool actors. Unexpectedly funny. Short.
