Gigli

2003 · 122 min

A tonally confused romantic crime comedy that lurches between awkward humor and forced sentiment, leaving a muddled, often unintentionally funny experience.

Life doesn't play by the rules.
Overview
Gigli is ordered to kidnap the psychologically challenged younger brother of a powerful federal prosecutor. When plans go awry, Gigli's boss sends in Ricki, a gorgeous free-spirited female gangster who has her own set of orders to assist with the kidnapping. But Gigli begins falling for the decidedly unavailable Ricki, which could be a hazard to his occupation.
