The Whole Nine Yards (2000 Jonathan Lynn)

Much better than Lynn's Clue, fortunately, though Matthew Perry falling over still isn't very funny. His new neighbour is hit man Bruce Willis; his horrible wife, Rosanna Arquette, is trying to have him killed. When Michael Clarke Duncan (The Green Mile) and Amanda Peet come into the story, things perk up further. Peet is good as enthusiastic wannabe assassin. Her appearance in front of crooks naked - before shooting - is an inspired idea. Nice to see her with Perry ahead of Studio 60. With Natasha Henstridge, Kevin Pollak.


Written by Mitchell Kapner.

Beautiful singing by Stephanie Biddle in nightclub.
