Master jewel thief Miles Logan (Martin Lawrence) has a big problem. A $20 million problem. Recently released from prison for the botched heist of a huge diamond, hes anxious to retrieve the hot rock which he hid at a construction site two years earlier. Unfortunately, his hiding place is now at the center of a recently completed high-security police precinct. Posing as a detective, and partnered with straight-laced rookie Carlson (Luke Wilson), Miles utilizes his criminal expertise and inadvertently rises up the ranks, winning the respect of his fellow 'boys in blue.

The pretty good script filled with nigga antics by the average comedian Lawrence is able to entertain, but unfortunately during the ending it turns into a typical macho action with a lot of stupid cool poses and typical "jokes" (not that the film contains any non-typical jokes, but at least some of them are fun to watch). The editing is good, the acting performances and the action sequences are good, and the whole thing is a slightly dubious but bearable B movie.
