Life doesn't play by the rules.

ComedyCrimeDramaRomance

Gigli is ordered to kidnap the psychologically challenged younger brother of a powerful federal prosecutor. When plans go awry, Gigli's boss sends in Ricki, a gorgeous free-spirited female gangster who has her own set of orders to assist with the kidnapping. But Gigli begins falling for the decidedly unavailable Ricki, which could be a hazard to his occupation.

VIBE

This film feels like a deeply uncomfortable and awkward date where neither person knows what to say. It's a bizarre, tonally inconsistent mess that tries to blend crime and romance, but ends up feeling more like a cringe comedy.
