Description
Possession may be 9/10 of the law but payback is everything to the lawless. Martin Lawrence and Danny DeVito escalate a battle of egosand a battalion of laughsto epic proportions in this fast-paced joke-fest that takes low-down behavior to hilarious new heights! Co-starring John Leguizamo (Moulin Rouge), Glenne Headly (Dirty Rotten Scoundrels), William Fichtner (Pearl Harbor), Bernie Mac (The Original Kings of Comedy), Carmen Ejogo (The Avengers), Larry Miller (The Nutty Professor II) and Nora Dunn (Three Kings), this laugh-out-loud comedy proves that "the worst that could happen is missing this film" (Jeffrey Lyons)! Caught red-handed trying to rob a mansion, Kevin Caffery (Lawrence) leaves empty-handed when the house's owner, ruthless billionaire Max Fairbanks (DeVito), spies Kevin's "lucky" ring and claims it as his own!Out of jail and out of his mind with rage, Kevin will do anything to get the ring back. But Max considers it his most cleverly won possession and will do anything to keep it! With battle lines drawn and no risk too great, these two set out to ruin each other's lives and both succeed admirably!

What's the Worst That Could Happen? Well, Expecting this to be a funny movie for once.......2005-07-24
So not funny, I am a fan of Martin Lawrence's comedyflicks but this just isn't funny... and what's up with the gay fashion policeofficer?
Danny Devito isn't funny at all in this film, and he ahas the lead in it so it gets really annoying watching it...
Even BLACK KNIGHT was 5 times better... do not even rent this movie...
The worst that could happen? Watching this film........2005-02-25
Five minutes in, I was cringing. Fifteen minutes in, I was in pain. It rates one star because the cinematography, lighting, sound, and other techical crews did competent work -- and because it's the lowest rating on the form.
If you love a good comedy caper, read the Donald Westlake book this atrocity was based on. It's clever, thrilling and hilarious -- everything the movie ain't. If you *must* get your comedy capers in movie form, get The Hot Rock instead. On the other hand, if your idea of brilliant humor is the stuff that cracks up 12-year-olds when they think they're being naughty, hey, this may be right up your alley.
AN ANSWER TO THE QUESTION IT ITSELF POSES........2004-05-30
Starts out with good timing, and some decent laughable banter from Martin Lawrence. Nothing laugh out loud funny but pleasantly amusing schtick. The central premise is actually quite interesting (billionaire stealing a ring from a petty robber etc), but the film fails to take advantage of it, choosing instead to lapse into numerous plot-holes, cliches and mind-bending stupidity. There's even a gay, dog-loving detective who adds fart humor to the mix. And all this leads to a climax that takes a quantum leap of logic and rationality. Perhaps a worthy rental if you're into slapstick, but overall a skippable fare.
Not too shabby.......2003-06-01
Not the Best movie, but worth seeing. if your looking for a movie to make you laugh alot than thi isn't it. But its alot better than some other movie out there so just give it a chance
Waste of a good story.......2003-03-11
A big fan of Donald Westlake, especially the Dortmunder series, this adaptation of one of his funniest was ruined by allowing the likes of Martin Lawrence. Matthew Chapman, responsible for the screen play obviously didn't understand the Dortmunder character. As usual a good story is chopped and hacked deviating from the story line and loosing the real purpose behind the events that lead to the final confrontation with Max Fairbanks. What a disappointment. At least read the book, you'll enjoy it better and you're intelligence won't be insulted by the fast, smart mouth talking of Martin Lawrence, who by the way is one of the executive producers. Go figure. (I didn't even want to give this star but you can't forward your review unless you pick one of them)
