Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This was Les Mayfield's final theatrical feature after a career of mid-budget comedies including 'Flubber' and 'Blue Streak.'
Released in January 2007, it epitomized the post-'Rush Hour' era of pairing Black comedians with Asian action stars—Lucy Liu's casting feels almost obligatory rather than inspired.
