The Survivors

Probably one of Ritchie's worst films, especially considering the talent of the two leading men. The plot is so aimless that I was left scratching my head at what the point was. There are enough one-liners that make it enough fun not to be miserable.

From the beginning, the movie was already acting stupid. Robin arrives at work only to get fired by a parrot. A PARROT! The thought of that idea is dumber than actually seeing it. Next, Walter goes out of a job after Robin arrives at his gas station and refills the car all wrong, leading to an explosion caused by Walter's cigarette rolling over to the spillage. If you thought that was stupid, they tease that part too many times before it eventually happens. By then, you realize what to expect.

A bad film which is more bizarre than funny. It's surprising to see such prominent comedians involved with such a low quality screenplay. Even all the talent and energy of Matthau and Williams can't save this bomb.

Fun comedy full of shooting and conspiracy nuts.

Notable for the "erection under the sheets" joke that's hilarious, but the rest is pretty whatever.
