Ah man, this was simply in a word....bad. The two lead actors had absolutely no chemistry whatsoever which is surprising watching Martin Lawrence in some of his previous films with Steve Zahn, Danny DeVito and of course Will Smith, where the chemistry was always spot on. I've never heard or even seen that lady who played his partner who was nothing more than a Clarice Starling surrogate in anything else worth watching, who had a much meatier script and way more screen time than Martin and still couldn't pull off making this watchable. I turned it off five times before even finishing because the story was so flat. It had vibes of Silence of Lambs in which Malcolvich is the supposedly Hannibal Lecter surrogate....not and a slight vibe of Seven because of the way methodical ways the serial killers left his victims. Overall this serial killer film is barely watchable only because it's mundane and has been done a whole lot better before. What was Martin thinking......ouch.
