It is an action comedy, the story of a Texas Ranger assigned to protect five University of Texas cheerleaders who witnessed a murder.

Roland Sharp (Tommy Lee Jones), a Texas Ranger and his partner Margaret Swanson (Liz Vassey) are working on a case involving a government witness Morgan Ball (Curton Armstrong). But someone shot Ball and Swanson was badly wounded. Five University of Texas cheerleaders Barb (Kelli Garner), Heather (Vanaessa Ferlito), Evie (Monica Keena), Anne (Christina Milian) and Therese (Paula Garces) witnessed the murder. Now, Roland has to protect these cheerleaders in order to catch the people involved in the case.

Moving into their campus house and posing as their cheerleading coach, Roland tries to protect these witnesses. These witnesses did not have a clear cut idea what the shooter looked like, which made it very difficult for Roland to proceed with the case. Living with five girls was not easy for Roland. He has some nice moments with Barb who has a crush on him. But he is smitten by one of the girl's literature professors Molly McCarthy. 

Roland as a man dedicated to his job, has to put a strain on his relationship with these young females. Will Roland be able to control his emotions and carry on with his job successfully?. 

The director Stephen Herek, unsuccessfully narrates a comical story. The movie has a series of disconnected episodes which serves no real purpose. A murder is thrown in, to get the story going. He could have made it into a good comedy with Tommy Lee and five beautiful and talented actresses. It turned out to be an unoriginal comedy with mediocre humor. As a whole, it is a badly directed, badly produced movie.

Tommy Lee Jones as Roland do justice to his role. Five beautiful girls as Texas cheerleaders are okay. The Entertainer brings some comic relief. 

We rate this movie BELOW AVERAGE.
