| Plot: | Ronnie Barnhardt lives with his alcoholic mother. He's chief security guard at Forest Ridge Mall, where he's in love with Brandi, a cosmetic sales clerk, and gets a free coffee each day from Nell, a cheery clerk in the food court. A flasher haunts the mall's parking lot, and at night, thefts occur. Ronnie is intent on catching the criminals but has no investigative skills, is delusional about his abilities, and makes mad accusations. His bête noire is Detective Harrison, the city cop sent to investigate. Ronnie thinks he could be an officer, thinks he stands a chance with Brandi, and slowly loses his self control. Will reality set in? What about redemption? |

Continuity: During the seen where Rogan is accusing the Indian mall worker of being the streaker as he massages lotion into a high school chick, you notice as they are going back and forth saying "f*** you" there is a woman pushing a stroller in the right background by the kiosk who disappears and reappears while they are cursing at each other. Revealing mistakes: When Ronnie is doing his monologue in the background when he's looking at himself in the mirror (right after the bench press scene), it is obvious there is a different person looking into the bogus mirror because his body movements are not consistent with his reflection. Continuity: SPOILER: When the pervert is running towards Brandi and Ronnie comes from behind and shoots him, Ronnie's hand goes down to his side after the gunshot. In the next frame, you see the gun raised back up again. Revealing mistakes: When Brandi is driving her car right before the pervert assaults her at the parking area, you can clearly see the spoiler move. CHAR: When Ronnie gets offered crack by the young kid at the crossroads, he said that he was offered a schedule I narcotic. Crack is not a narcotic; it is a stimulant. A narcotic is a substance that causes morphine-like effects by relieving pain and inducing sleep. CHAR: When Brandi and Detective Harrison are having sex in his car, Detective Harrison repeatedly says the name Mandy instead of Brandi. Continuity: When Ronnie is cornered by the crack heads, the actor playing the second-to-last man he strikes with the baton changes between shots. In one shot, he is an African-American in a gray shirt. In the shot in which he is struck, he is clearly a Caucasian wearing the same clothes with gray hair and facial hair. |

[from trailer] Ronnie Barnhardt: The world has no use for another scared man. Right now, the world needs a fucking hero. Ronnie Barnhardt: Yuens, you guys are my infantry. One of you dies, God gave me another one. Matt Yuen: Okay. John Yuen: Awesome. Ronnie Barnhardt: Are you all right? Brandi: Physically yes, but psychologically? No! [from trailer] Saddamn: My dick is brown, you dumb motherfucker! Saddamn: My dick is brown you dumb motherfucker. Brandi: [Wakes up to find Ronnie not having sex with her] Why did you stop, motherfucker? Saddamn: Why the fuck would I want to blow up the Chick-fil-A? It's fucking delicious! Saddamn: You wanna cover them little breasts with some bubbles? Dennis: My bad, my blunder. Charles: [Charlie is asked to join the Special Elite Task Force] Wait a minute, are we getting paid extra for this? Because it seems like... Ronnie Barnhardt: Let me ask you something - how much did they get paid to storm Normandy, how much did King Arthur get paid to kill Merlin, how much did they get paid to invent Television? Nothing. They did it because they knew it was right. Brandi: It's like my mom always said: you can polish a turd, but it's still a piece of shit. Dennis: I ain't going to lie to you Ronnie, there is nothing good about this at all. Female Reporter: I'm standing here at Forest Ridge Mall where earlier today a man exposed himself to several women before fleeing the scene. I'm here with Ronnie Barnhardt, one of the security guards here at the mall, who can hopefully... Ronnie Barnhardt: Cut! Uh, you fucked up ma'am. I'm, I'm the head of mall security. You should do that again and say it right. Female Reporter: Ah, well, Officer Bardhardt... Ronnie Barnhardt: Action. Female Reporter: Right. Uh, is there any information you can shed on this situation? Ronnie Barnhardt: You're just going to keep going when you fucked up my title? Ok, uh, well I'm standing here with this doctor... Mom: I just want you to know, I'm ready to make a change. Ronnie Barnhardt: You gonna stop drinking? Mom: I'm switching to beer. Dennis: Whatsup mo Freckle? How's your dick hanging? Low I hope. I just wanted to write you and say that, you know I really am sorry for the way shit like went down and stuff, my bad, my blunder. I just wanted you to know that you really are my best man, problem is I'm a criminal man who doesn't care and your crime is... you care too much. Regardless of our differences, I hope you know that I always respected you, it's not every day you that you meet someone who stands for something in this world, anyway, no hard feelings okay, but if you ever want to party, get your ass to mexico, the beers are cool and the girls are wet. Sincerely, your right hand man, Dennis. Ronnie Barnhardt: I have a dream most nights. It starts on a playground. There's kids swinging, laughing, dogs barking, butterflies just flapping their little wings. And then you hear a rumbling, and over the horizon comes a black cloud and it's made of cancer and pus. And it starts sweeping over the playground and everyone starts screaming and clawing their eyes and pulling at their hair, and saying "Help! What do we do?" And you know what happens next? Out steps me wielding the biggest fucking shotgun you've ever seen in your whole life. And you know what I do? I blow every fucking thing away. And I am getting God's work done. When it's all over and the dust has settled, the whole world gathers below me and they say, "Thank you, Ronnie, thank you for helping, being a great man and doing this for us." And you know what I say? "You don't need to thank me. I'm just a guy with a gun. I'm just a cop." Brandi: [sees Ronnie taking his psych meds] I didn't know you partied like that. Ronnie Barnhardt: Yeah, I party like that every 4 to 6 hours. Detective Harrison: You wanna get hurt? Ronnie Barnhardt: You didn't bring enough pigs to hurt me. Dennis: I ain't going to lie to you Ronnie, there is nothing good about this at all. Toast A Bun Manager: Oh, look at that, two "I'm sorries". I thought those might clean the counter but they don't, because I guess I'm fuckin' dumb. |
