WITLESS PROTECTION (2008)
Synopsis
Larry the Cable Guy returns for another comic
misadventure as a small town sheriff who
unwittingly gets involved in a high profile FBI case in
Lionsgate’s new comedy, Witless Protection. During
a routine day spent patrolling his small town, Larry
witnesses a beautiful, high-class woman,
Madeleine, being held against her will by four
mysterious, black-suited men. Recognizing the
opportunity to save the day, Larry “kidnaps” her,
only to learn that Madeleine is actually a key witness
in a high-stakes Chicago crime case and her
captors are FBI agents assigned to protect her.
Madeleine is furious. But Larry, who rightly suspects
the agents are crooked and Madeleine is in danger,
forces her on a harebrained trip to Chicago to solve
the case himself. Together, the hilariously
mismatched duo must grapple with angry FBI
agents, quack doctors and Chicago high society in
his funniest, most unpredictable adventure yet.
Witless Protection is written and directed by
Charles Robert Carner and stars Larry the Cable
Guy, Ivana Milicevic, Yaphet Kotto, Peter Stormare,
Eric Roberts, Joe Mantegna and Jenny McCarthy.
