The Whole Ten Yards

In hiding in Mexico, hit man Jimmy The Tulip Tudeski (Bruce Willis) has become a veritable Martha Stewart, cooking and cleaning up a storm. Meanwhile, his new wife Jill (Amanda Peet) is distraught that her own career as an assassin has yet to take off. When Jimmy's ex-wife Cynthia (Natasha Henstridge) is kidnapped by Hungarian mobster Lazlo Gogolak (Kevin Pollak), her husband, klutzy dentist Nicholas Oz Oseransky (Matthew Perry) turns to Jimmy for help. Soon, Jimmy, Jill, and Oz are involved in a game of cat and mouse with Lazlo and his men trying to trade Cynthia for Lazlo's dim-witted adult son, whom the trio has kidnapped. But do Jimmy and his ex have a secret that they're not sharing with their spouses

    This sequel to 2000's The Whole Nine Yards reunites Matthew Perry and Bruce Willis in their roles of nervy dentist and retired Mafia hitman respectively. Willis comes to the rescue when Perry's wife Natasha Henstridge is kidnapped by a Hungarian mob led by Kevin Pollack (as the father of the character he played in the original). The trouble is that Willis's usually reliable comic timing is nowhere to be seen and the actresses — Amanda Peet returns as the aspiring hitwoman who's now married to Willis — seem bored by the contrivances haphazardly put together by director Howard Deutch. The only real winner is Matthew Perry, whose slapstick schtick shows us what we've been missing since the TV series Friends ended.

    Disappointed..

    Start watching it thinking it will carry on from where the earlier (Whole Nine Yards) had left. It did but, where as the first movie was witty, clever and funny this was just plain silly and has cheap humour.

    This film is still funny but its made very different to the first one and just not as funny!

    Typical sequel

    I suppose out of curiosity, you always have to watch the sequel. This is a typical sequel, but leaning more to the slightly disappointing side considering the good cast and the first film being good. I would say worth a look just to see Bruce Willis in bunny slippers!
