Like I said, how that line got through the filmmaking process is beyond me. I mean, this was an otherwise solid film, with some very good dialogue ("It's me!" "How do we know?" "You're a dick." "Okay."), and then there's one line that's just incredibly bad, and then stands out all the more because it's surrounded by *good* dialogue.

And I won't even talk about that horrible accent Halle Barry came up with. I mean, Halle Barry is Mercury-like in her hotness (eclipsed only by the blaze of glory that is Shannon Elizabeth... I saw Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back and American Pie 2 today, and I truly believe right now that Shannon Elizabeth is the hottest woman alive), but she really needs to go back to acting school. Seriously.
