Two childhood friends, a New York hairstylist and a would-be musician, get caught up with the mob and are forced to deliver $50,000 to Australia, but things go haywire when the money is lost to a wild kangaroo. Louis Booker and Charlie Carbone are close friends with an association with the mob. After the duo botch a delivery of stolen TVs, the duo are given a second chance by mob leader Sal Maggio, who happens to be Charlie's stepfather. The duo are to deliver $50,000 to a contact in Australia. As simple as the job sounds, complications emerge when a kangaroo steals the money. Now Charlie and Louis must find the kangaroo and get the money back before they find themselves in a worse predicament. I just can't believe how many people out there are poor & helpless in the sense of humour department. Nobody in the movie ever made fun of epileptic people. Nobody. It was just a joke, not even a tasteless one. People in the world keep getting themselves way too seriously and keep misjudging things around them. And that's pretty bad. If you can't stand a joke about epilepsy, and find it pretty offensive, man, I think there's something wrong with your thinking. I am talking about the so called freedom of joke, dude, and I'm afraid most of the world is starting to lose touch with it. Ps: What about jokes about, i.a., single-handed people? Should they rise their fist and voice against those "tasteless" lines just because they have lost one hand? Come on! I have two words for this movie from my friend Jay Sherman from the TV Show: The Critic…IT STINKS! What the hell, this movie is absolutely and completely a movie for stoners only. My goodness. This movie is so terrible, that I rather watch Howard The Duck than this piece is garbage. This movie officially ends the career of Dyan Cannon and Jerry O'Connell. Straight from the fiery, churning bowels of high-concept hell comes Kangaroo Jack, Bruckheimer's idea of kid-friendly fare, and some of the longest 90 minutes ever committed to film.
