30 Minutes Or Less (2011)

Anyone who knows me (two people) knows that I like a good comedy. From the director of Zombieland sounds like a pretty good endorsement, but unfortunately this wasn't one of them. Two would-be crooks force a pizza delivery guy to rob a bank for them by strapping a ticking time bomb around his chest. Things get a little bit hairy when an ex-Marine and a hitman get involved in the mix. If it sounds dumb, that's because it is. Danny McBride and Nick Swardson have some good chemistry, but they're fighting a losing battle.
