The director of Smokin' Aces brings you into the world of Kevin Stretch, a Hollywood limo driver with a dark past. When Stretch is in need of quick cash to pay back his debts to a notorious gangster, he takes a job with a billionaire client in hopes of a big payday. His client's eccentricities soon escalate into a wild night of adventure, sex, and danger which begins to make the fate of returning to the mob empty-handed seem reasonable. (Universal Pictures US)

This film could definitely have been better; it has some strange twists and the ending is dull, but it still has its moments and I quite enjoyed it. I love Patrick Wilson and some of the actors here literally delighted me. The screenplay is no miracle, but there are moments here that entertain. David Hasselhoff brings entertainment everywhere, and Chris Pine once again excels as a great eccentric.

An incredibly wild road movie romp that had my eyes popping out of their sockets every minute! I was expecting an action movie and I got a perfect thriller on the theme of race against time, which I personally love and prefer, because these flicks always get my adrenaline pumping. The upside is definitely the unexpectedly large participation of well-known actors, I recommend not to read anything, the less you find out about it the more you will be surprised. The dialogues at one moment are incredibly intelligent or tense and the next moment very funny and entertaining, I kissed the carpet slowly! Chris Pine played probably his life role here, you don't see a guy this crazy and mysterious every day. My tongue is still on my desk right now, surprise of the year. 80%

An excellent stylish action/comedy ride, which gave me much more than I expected. Patrick Wilson plays a seasoned guy while Chris Pine portrays a real nutjob. Overall, this was a road limousine taxi trip that I probably won’t forget easily. Actually, it wasn’t as funny as it was cool, and I just hope that this film’s fame spreads as much as possible, because it really deserves recognition.

Sometimes one wonders what pieces of intestinal debris make it into the theaters, but can this luxury limousine ride really not find a distributor? Heh. Carnahan filmed this heartfelt movie with comrades from the branch about a limo driver who wants to become an actor (cliché) and the fateful blows dealt on him by the all-powerful Chris Pine. He happened to play one of the myriad of pleasant, braindead weirdos (with a face like Spider Jerusalem before skiing down hill) and almost achieves the so-far unbeaten creations of the Nazi freak from Smokin’ Aces. Patrick Wilson at last can enjoy a good role and I wish him more of the same. He deserves it. Jessica Alba for once fine and not annoying. Oh, and the unforgettable cameo by a certain Hoff. Hasselhoff. An excellent array of snappy lines, humor and satisfaction. It went down really well. - Who gets fat around the neck? - Sexy people.

The chauffeur profession as portrayed by Patrick Wilson is really no mean feat. At times it did feel like a bit of a "what else can go wrong and what seeming absurdity will happen this time" game with the viewer, but the fun of it cannot be denied. And I don't mind emotional endings in films this simple, quite the contrary.
