Patrick Dempsey plays Tripp Kennedy, a savant with a liking for small change. A still hot Ashley Judd plays Kaitlin, a bank teller. But not all is as it seems and as the story progresses the action heats up, the story, and the film, begins to fall apart.
Once the thought "Monk" entered my head I couldn't get rid of it, like one of those annoying songs you get stuck on your internal jukebox. There were couple of laugh out loud moments but those were few and far between and the movie seemed to drag on and on and the holes in the plot got bigger and the script was stretched to cover the holes, mostly with lots of pointless swearing.
Pointless in two respects. Rob Minkoff is no Quentin Tarantino and all the cast added together will never be Samuel L Jackson. The storyline was so vague at times, so off plot, that I got the impression the someone on set shouted "MORE SWEARING" to cover up the rubbish dialogue and acting in pointless scenes which should have been sent to the floor of the edit suite, metaphorically speaking.
Calling the film absolute garbage is a bit harsh and calling it toilet paper is funny but ultimately unfair.
Take the swearing out and Flypaper would make a good slapstick movie.
