In the sequel to the 2000 film "The whole 9 yards" in which Oz (played by Friends' Matthew Perry) got mixed up with the twisted affairs of Jimmy the Tulip (Bruce Willis), a hitman who had just moved in nextdoor. It appeared that everything had worked out for the best but, the father of the baddie from the first is out of prison and looking for revenge on those who killed his son.

Oz is rather on edge, and Willis pulls off Crazy quite well as his character gets a little too in to his secret identity, now that he is technically dead. Watch out for a few plot twists, most of which are predictable, but one of which left me guessing. Frankie Figgs is sadly not in the sequel.

It was worth seeing the once but I certainly have no intention to see it again. There were some amusing bits and a few bits where I got into the storyline, but it felt a bit thrown together and not as well constructed as the first. So see this if you liked the first one, but don't expect a sequel that will blow you away.
