Witless Protection

When a small-town sheriff (Larry the Cable Guy) witnesses what he believes to be an attempted kidnapping, his effort to save the beautiful damsel in distress sets him down a wild path of comic mishap. Eric Roberts, Yaphet Kotto, Peter Stormare, and Joe Mantegna co-star in a comedy from Red Water and Christmas Rush director Charles Robert Carner., A small-town cop mistakes a government witness for a kidnap victim and “rescues” her from her FBI protectors., It’s “Blue Collar Comedy” star Larry the Cable Guy taking on white-collar criminals in this slapstick yukfest. Larry plays a small-town cop who mistakes a government witness for a kidnap victim (Ivana Milicevic) and “rescues” her from her FBI protectors, who might be corrupt from their well-polished shoes to their perfectly cut hair. Yaphet Kotto costars as federal agent Alonzo Moseley, the same character he played in 1988’s “Midnight Run.” Written and directed by Charles Robert Carner.
