Fallon is Washburn, a truly pathetic New York City cop who can't seem to wake up in the morning without bumbling his job and breaking whatever he touches. After his most recent debacle, his boss and former flame, Lieutenant Marta Robbins (Jennifer Esposito), revoked his license. Latifah is Belle, a retired bike messenger who is about to fulfill a lifelong dream of becoming a bona fide cab driver. When Fallon commandeers Belle's services after hearing of a nearby bank robbery, a partnership is formed. Unfortunately, even when he means well, Washburn is nothing but trouble. Against her better judgment, Belle finds herself doing what she can to help out the pitiful guy, even though the bank robbers (led by supermodel Gisele Bundchen) are several steps ahead of the game.

|  | HORROR (2002) RUN TIME: 105 MINUTES Kyla Travis, fresh from Podunk, Texas, has come to Hollywood to become a real actress, over older sister Angela's protests. For years, she has acted in community theater productions, and now feels she's ready to move up to the next level. Initially clueless, she makes friends with some more experienced actress wannabes, who guide her through the ins and outs of the LA actor's life: where to stay; where to find the cheapest head shots; how to find auditions; and what to wear to them, etc. Kyla tackles her chosen profession with more gusto than talent, unperturbed by failure, until she finds herself auditioning in a rundown theater in the heart of Los Angeles for producer Carl Reese. Reese, as she later discovers, is not looking for actors--he has something far more deadly in mind. Kyla's dream becomes a nightmare of pain, fear and death that threatens her life, that of her new friends, and even her sister Angela, who comes to Hollywood looking for her after she vanishes without a trace.
