Six strangers win a special coin in various slot machines and are told by the casino owner, Donald Sinclair (John Cleese), that it enters them into a chance to win $2 million. All they have to do is be the first to open a train locker in Silver City, New Mexico. What they don't know is that the whole race is just for the amusement of Sinclair's jaded high rollers, who placed bets on which sad sack is going to win.
This is a very slapstick movie with a lot of physical humor, which I have never cared for. The cast is astounding with more cameos than I have the patience to type but it wasn't enough to make this enjoyable. However, if you liked Rowan Atkinson as Mr. Bean, or Cuba Gooding, Jr. in Boat Trip, or Jon Lovitz in... anything, you might like this movie. It's currently streaming on HBO Max.
