Everybody has a friend who never quite got the hang of being an adult. It seems they got stuck somewhere in high school and can’t quite find the rhythm of being a grown-up. Randy Dupree (Owen Wilson) is just such a lad. He’s kind, gracious and fumbling. He has trouble distinguishing what’s privacy and what isn’t. He seems to find all of the push buttons to seem like a wounded bunny when hurt yet able to alienate his buddies by his obliviousness to the mores of relationships. Filling the crapper with noxious emissions isn’t going to help.

Some days it just doesn’t pay to get out of bed. All you want to do is your job, check out and go home. But sometimes you find yourself in a time and place that allows you to become more than you’ve become. Jack Mosley (Bruce Willis) is in the wrong place at the wrong time. Eddie Bunker (Mos Def) is a witness against some bad cops and his courthouse driver gets caught in traffic. Frank Nugent (David Morse) comes by the bar where they are recuperating after one attempt on Eddie’s life and starts in on persuading Frank to give up the witness. About to kill Eddie, Frank kneecaps the shooter and thereby declares which side he’s on.

The attention paid to someone else is always an allure to those who are being paid less. Georgia Byrd (Queen Latifah) orders all of the menu specials prompting Chef Didier (Gérard Depardieu) to drop by her table to chat about cooking and ingredients. This makes the boss Matthew Kragen (Timothy Hutton) envious as he wants to impress his guests and associates—Senator Dillings (Giancarlo Esposito), Congressman Stewart (Michael Nouri)—with his capacity to demand respect and feels slighted when the chef doesn’t scamper like a puppy to his side to have his belly rubbed.

If you’re going to kill someone, you really should make sure that your victim is a corpse when you call it in as an accident. It is so embarrassing when the police find them hale and hearty. Peter Lyman (Hugh Jackman) takes Sondra Pransky (Scarlett Johansson) out for a pleasant afternoon excursion on his lake and, thinking her a non-swimmer, drops her in the drink and sets it up as if she went out alone. Distraught, he calls the local constabulary and tells them that she wanted some time away. Unfortunately for him, Sondra wanders in, soaked to the skin, adding that she feigned her inability to swim to meet Peter.

Why do some believe there is a nobility and graciousness to bad guys? Most are venal, unworthy of their reps. For example, we all hate Mystique (Rebecca Romijn), the toady of Magneto (Ian McKellen). But when she steps in front of him and takes a dart in the shoulder, we think what a nice thing to do. But then we see that she has been stripped of her shape-shifting ability and she ends up lying naked on the floor of the prison truck van. Most of us think, oh dear, what is going to happen to her now? Me, I’m thinking she’s naked. Magneto seems to be surprised at how vulnerable she appears. Then, in reaching out to him (after her most callous disregard for all things not Magneto), he turns away shunning her, leaving her discarded like any other piece of broken equipment.
