SYNOPSIS When a Federal Agent “on the take” in a multi-million dollar arms heist turns up dead on the mean streets of Detroit, all eyes turn toward his partner, Derrick Vann (Jackson), a hardcore undercover Fed known for his untrusting, street-wise style. Vann’s given 24 hours to recover the stolen arms and find the cop killers, but he’s about to stumble upon an unlikely ally: Andy Fiddler (Levy), an affable, optimistic dental supply salesman in town for a two-day convention. When the bad guys mistake Andy to be the buyer in a stolen arms deal, Vann is forced to utilize the talkative salesman as "the face" of his sting operation. With the clock ticking, this unlikely duo speeds through the streets of Detroit in an intense and hilarious adventure that uncovers much more than they could have ever anticipated. · “Sam Jackson’s Guide to Cursing Like a Bad A&% Motha F$#@*” featurette · “Who’s the Man?” featurette · “Making an Action Scene” featurette · “The Ride: A Look at the ’83 Cadillac” featurette · Deleted scenes · Gag reels · Theatrical trailer · 16x9 Widescreen (1.85:1) version of the film · English Dolby Digital 5.1 and Stereo Surround 2.0 · English and Spanish subtitles · Closed captions *DVD special features subject to change. |
