The Whole Nine Yards
What a hoot! Matthew Perry stars as a dentist who discovers that an infamous hit man (Bruce Willis) just moved next door. Perry's slutty wife, who wants to knock off Perry for the million-dollar insurance policy, blackmails him to go to Chicago to rat on Willis to the bad guys. After that, Perry gets stuck between a pretty dirty war between thugs. Okay, don't watch this film for the plot (because the plot is stupid), but you've got to see it for Perry's absolutely brilliant physical comedy. (The next Peter Sellers, perhaps? Well, maybe not, but by the looks of it, he's not far from the right path.)
