Comedy of errors, sheriff gets what he deserves.
27 November 2005
Good comedy, well written & acted. Unusual part for Samuel Jackson, a nice change, and he does an excellent job in his roll. Dabney Coleman does an outstanding job of portraying the stereotypical dumb-racist-goofy sheriff. I think the only overacted part was done by Nick Cage. His part as a spastic jerk was good, but maybe a bit too hyper or extreme. Nobody is that animated!

This movie does have a good social commentary, and it is the root of it's creation. Cudos to the creators, for much care and effort in doing a well balanced production! Not so heavy the message, as to blow the fun of this flick. Not so light, that the attitudes and results of them, can't be clearly seen.

Ignorance gets it's just reward, and the righteous prevail! Typical stereotype movie? Sure! It is a fun production, and a good popcorn & soda spitter, worth your time if you haven't seen it. Bonus? ...Nobody dies!
