The criminal activity onscreen in Bulletproof is penny ante compared with the felonious slaughter of story, character and logic exacted by the pic's filmmakers.

While some of the humor is very funny, there's nothing remotely interesting about the action stuff.

The movie has a smirking homophobic bent and never makes you care or believe in the characters as much as in the first fifteen minutes.

Bulletproof doesn't quite misfire, but it never hits its target either.

The audience is subjected to an onslaught of unfunny jokes, a string of useless profanity, and more explosive squibs than Caan wore in The Godfather.

The film's action elements are so preposterous that the sequence of events seems almost improvised.
