No me too. Pretty good film. Bruce Willis said that film got a bad rap and that they actually made money on that movie contrary to what was said. I wanted Hudson Hawk II.

I always thought Danny and Paul Sorvino were two underrated actors and kind of similar.

I’m going to guess Bubba, because he mentioned the good economy. That certainly doesn’t apply to Barry.

The MSM only make mention Danny in relation to Cher, Madonna, and Spike Lee. RIP Danny
