**_Fun adventure in the Outback_** Two Brooklyn friends (Jerry O'Connell and Anthony Anderson) are commissioned by a mob boss (Christopher Walken) to deliver $50,000 to a shady character in the Outback. The operation goes awry when a kangaroo inadvertently runs off with one of the guys’ jacket… and the money. Michael Shannon is on hand as a mob heavy. "Kangaroo Jack" (2003) is a likable family-friendly adventure/comedy with the typical eye-rolling kid humor (e.g. fart jokes). It’s fun, harmless hokum highlighted by spectacular Australian cinematography and the beautiful Estella Warren as an Outback preservationist. The humorous camaraderie of the protagonists is another highpoint. But the story isn’t as compelling as I hoped it would be and the camera never really captures Estella’s beauty beyond her lovely face and bosom. It runs 1 hour, 29 minutes and was shot in Australia and Brooklyn with reshoots done in Los Angeles. GRADE: C+
