I like Will Smith, he is handsome, funny and safe. [Second impression] I actually like the role of Tommy Lee even more. The humor revealed from time to time, and the last reunion with my girlfriend, touched my heart~ I am really old, is my mood different?

Jay: You were stung as a child, weren't you?
Kay: Imagine a giant cockroach, with unlimited strength, a massive inferiority complex, and a real short temper, is tear-assing around Manhattan Island in a brand-new Edgar suit. That sound like fun?
