...before he can blow their heads off. This offers plenty of chances for Murphy-style comedy, none of which writer Randy Feldman or director Thomas Carter bothered to exploit. Except for a decent scene in which Roper mimics a white bandit as a test for his galoot partner (Michael Rapaport), there's no room for Eddie to be Eddie. It's as if Carter thought the project was a smooth vehicle that Murphy could simply ride in, when it's really a hunk-a-junk the star needed to transform...

The latter, a barroom pianist in New York City, has come home to think over his relationship with a high-powered lawyer. Before making the right decision, he flirts with another visitor (Uma Thurman) and, most interestingly, with the 13-year-old who lives next door (Natalie Portman...

His anguished pursuit of Linda, in which he tries mating her with a dim boxer (Michael Rapaport), is tracked by a Greek chorus that's all singing, all dancing and so Yiddish you could plotz. "I see catastrophe," one chorus member darkly intones. "Worse--I see lawyers...
