Decent watch, might watch again, and can recommend. This is one of those movies that has more memorable scenes than the movie itself is memorable. It's full of absurdity humor and a decent mix of abuse humor. Chris Klein is great at playing the guy to which things happen while maintaining more handsome charm than Jason Biggs. Unfortunately there isn't much to the actual story. The entire gaslighting adversity of having thought he's trying to get back to his sister reminds me of "Joe Dirt" and "Sleeping Dogs Lie", which are both probably funnier. The mob mix is an interesting ingredient, but it might have been a bit of a hat on a hat. Ultimately, you're getting a funny experience, but it is quite a bit of a rollercoaster.
