Well, you see what we gots here is a down on his luck police officer catches his wife cheating on him, he decides its time to become a detective. Because, well, why not. But, all rookies must endure the hazing of Poker Night where the older detectives pass along their insights and experiences to the newbies while giving them a good ribbing. Because, well, why not but, when a brash serial killer with a flare for the dramatic comes to town, things get interesting. Supposedly. When the killer sets his sights on the newbie, and his secret girlfriend, its all hands on deck as the rookie tries to implement his new found knowledge faster than the killer is masking the old detectives and their families disappear. Because, well, why not. I sense a squeeeequil!

Other Memorable Lines:
Davis to group, “You don’t always get what you want. Take for instance my broken jaw and eighteen stitches.”.
Jeter to audience, ”Amy? Amy was a mistake in more ways than one.”.

Final Stupor of Thought:
And, when all else fails, just ask for a kiss. And, thank you in advance for not destroying my BB-8 valentines mailbox. Whew, that was something. And, not always what you expected. Hit the web and stores tomorrow for your Jack Reacher around and the latest version of Pinocchio. Target’s comes with a 28 page little golden book. Or, just save your pennies for the next few weeks to grab your favorite format/packaging on Moana, Dr. Strange and Justice Dark with the action figure if you are like me and want to keep the dvd action figure collection going strong.
Punk go nap time now.
