Okay, now I understand. This movie was shot on location in places like Bora-Bora and Tahiti. So, Vince spent $59,999,999 on location shooting, and a buck on a script?! Three Kindergarten kids, on recess, could do a better job of writing!! This exercise in futility wasted the talents of a good many actors!

Waste of money. Waste of talent. I'm sure the ONLY people that were pleased, were the good folks down at the Bora-Bora Department of Tourism.

it seems to have earned quite a profit...

I imagine a huge chunk of the money probably went to bribing Jean Reno to be in the movie.
