Wasn't exactly sure what to expect, then the opening scene.

The first Richard+Archibald car chase scene was delightful. JCvD gets a lot of respect from me for the authenticity that he brings to comedy.

For anyone who even halfway enjoyed this and haven't yet seen 'Jean-Claude Van Johnson,' you're in for a treat.
