But the Trivia section said this was originally intended as a starring role for Mel Gibson with the Coen brothers directing. Now maybe I'm just biased because I'm such a big Lethal Weapon fan, but COME ON! Who else would LOVE to see that?!
shareit would have been more like Drive in that case
shareMel Gibson is no good with numbers ; he can't count the money in his wallet at the start of Lethal Weapon ( Christmas tree scene ).
shareHa-ha, touche.

We also have to rule out Clint Eastwood, because Dirty Harry can't even count to six.
shareWow. One just doesn't realize these things till one really thinks about them. What's with all the great action stars of the 70s and 80s not knowing crap about math?

Ben was a much better choice for this...
shareCasting was outstanding, including Anna Kendrick. She was the perfect spark-plug of an extrovert to Chris' autistic introvert. One of my top 4 actresses, along Amy Adams, Emma Stone and Jessica Chastain.
shareI agree she did well. Don't always like every role of hers but she does well in all the parts she gets. Definitely one of the day's best young actresses, along with the others you mentioned.
