What's The Worst That Could Happen? ( Nederlands ondertitelde Import )

Tijdens een inbraak bij een multimiljonair verliest een professionele dief zijn geluksring. Beter nog: die wordt gestolen door de heer des huizes en dat roept om wraak! Al snel ontstaat een kat en muisspel tussen de dief en de miljonair.This unfortunately named misfire of a comedy stars Martin Lawrence as a home-invasion specialist caught and robbed by one of his targets, a corrupt billionaire businessman played by Danny DeVito. Of course, this means war, so to recover his stolen booty Lawrence launches a series of break-ins and crafty acts of sabotage with his motor-mouth partner John Leguizamo. The film turns Donald Westlakes comic heist novel of the same name into a frantically disjointed comedy played for cutesy cynicism. Lawrence mugs his way through high-tech home invasions and elaborate heists as if they were little more than expensive pranks. The one bright spot is William Fichtner, who steals the film as an effeminate police detective who in his jumpsuits and flair pants looks like he stepped out of a hipper-than-hip 1960s European jet-set drama. --Sean Axmaker
