My rating: 6/10

Will I watch it again? Nah.

This is about what I expected but less than I wanted.  I liked it.  It's harmless.  I loved Joe Mantegna as the DJ, and Steve Buscemi of course.  Nice BLUES BROTHERS (1980) type ending. That's about it, really.  I just watched the thing and I've got nothing to say.  Geez.
