Easy to forget comedy

Critic Rating
Reader Rating 0

It's apt that US star Cedric the Entertainer should play an amnesiac in an action/comedy that proves so easy to forget.

After a blow to the head, a man is accosted by a sexy white lady who claims he's a secret agent.

He finds a pink thong in his drawer, tries to evade a mouthy black "sister" and gets involved in a search for a secret chip (not a mysterious French fry, alas, but a computer part).

Only the appearance of Lucy Liu makes you lurch forward with surprise. It's all coming back now. Didn't she used to have a career?

Code Name: The Cleaner
Cert: PG
