2007 / Joe Carnahan > While a cornucopia of outlandish fun, Carnahan’s follow-up to the critically-acclaimed Narc lacks the subtlety and tension that made his initial directing effort so effective. But that’s not to take away from the fact that for nearly two hours, I was glued to the screen with little thought of what else was around me. Whether the movie has a real point or not is not the point at all, but rather that its sustainability is jaw-dropping. It’s a fine mess, if you will, and a mess that luckily you can leave behind once the credits roll.
