Overall, even though there wasn't much originality in the story, the movie managed to hold my interest and was somewhat entertaining. However, there was what I consider a huge plot hole that sort of makes the whole movie seem ridiculous. The plot involves the protagonists having to make a tough decision as to whether or not they should go through with a drug courier assignment that is going awry. So of course, they are caught between making some "easy money" and the risk of facing some serious jail time. WARNING, possible small spoiler coming up...
After they've delivered the money and accepted the drugs, now they are getting cold feet about whether or not to risk trying to cross the border with the drugs (don't worry, I won't reveal what their decision was). All they seem to be concerned about is getting busted, losing their courier fee, their friendship and loyalty, etc. However, the BIG thing that they totally don't even take into consideration at all is this: if they don't deliver the drugs, aren't the dealers, who are waiting for the drugs, going to be pretty darned p***d off?!?! The dealers have paid a suitcase of money, so if they don't get their drugs, the young buddies would presumably be hunted down like dogs. This whole angle is not even mentioned!!! These guys should be more worried about this danger than losing their courier fee which is chump change compared to what the drugs would be worth to the waiting dealers. Am I missing something here?
