Movie Review by Al
January 27th, 2007

As in most comedys, there is a presence of some sillyness. ...two guys driving through the southern US get caught up in a set of circumstances putting them at the right place at the wrong time. The results are that they fit all of the patterns to commiting a terrible crime based on the poor concepts of "southern hospitality thinking." The plot continues the course when the "cracker judge" takes the issues in when the entire situation channels into the court case against them. To save the day, they make a phone call back to New York where one of the guys is related to his cousin Vinney, "The Lawyer". Joe Pesche is a "Yo.....Hey Adrianne" kind of guy who travels into the south with his girlfriend to defend the pair. The "southern logic" meets head on with the "Brooklyn-ese" thought processes to make heads or tails out of all the facts of the case which happen to wind up in his girlfriends hands. Not thought provoking but very entertaining.
