He knows that only Chet could be stupid enough to help him try.

Can the two friends make up, get the cash, and save Nick from a fiery end?

Michael Pena is also great fun as the lisping hitman hired to do Dwaynes dirty work.

30 Minutes Or Lessworks best when it opts for witty gags or silly, broad slapstick.

Where the film misfires is in its occasional lapses into crudity for cruditys sake.

3 stars

Ultimately,30 Minutes Or Lessdoesnt quite have classic potential.

Job done in only 83 minutes… and no, youre not getting your money back.
