DVD Synopsis

Adapted from a true story, dockworker Joey Coyle (John Cusack) finds over $1 million, which fell from an armored car. Instead of returning the money, he embarks on a spending spree unchecked by the wishes of his friend (Michael Rapaport) and hires a crime ring to launder the money. The detective assigned to the case (Michael Madsen) follows his increasingly distinct tracks. ~ John Bush, All Movie Guide

In case you havent noticed I like John Cusack. I found this movie to be funny in all the right places. It is based on a true event. Joey Coyle does find $ 1.2 million. It was John at his best, but his character isnt the smartest and I winced at each mistake he makes on his way to being caught.
Silliest thing that really hit me is that there is a love scene with naked breasts. Debi Mazar is so flat-chested all I think of is, how much has changed from 1993 with everyone having fake big ones now. I mean what a waste of an R rating. If you are going to show some skin make it worth something to see. It got an r for a few F bombs actually.
