Stretch is a 2014 action-comedy directed by Joe Carnahan and stars Patrick Wilson, Ed Helms, and James Badge Dale. The film follows Wilson's character, known only as Stretch, an out-of-work limousine driver who is struggling to make ends meet. His luck changes when he meets a billionaire financier named Roger Karos (Chris Pine), who hires him to drive him around Los Angeles for the night.

At first, the job is easy, with Stretch chauffeuring Roger to various parties and events around the city. However, things quickly take a turn when Roger reveals his true intentions: he's using Stretch to settle a debt with a dangerous and powerful underworld figure named Ophelia (Randy Couture). Not only that, but Roger also subjects Stretch to a series of humiliating and dangerous challenges throughout the night, all while offering him large cash bonuses for completing them.

As Stretch navigates through the night's challenges, he also deals with personal issues, including his recent breakup with his girlfriend, Charlie (Brooklyn Decker), and his growing dependence on cocaine, which he uses to stay awake and focused. Along the way, he encounters a cast of strange and quirky characters, including a transvestite hooker (Shaun Toub), a crazed rock star (David Hasselhoff), and a tough-as-nails detective (Dale).

The film is full of action-packed sequences and dark humor, with plenty of twists and turns to keep the audience engaged. Wilson delivers a solid performance as the lovable yet flawed protagonist, while Pine's portrayal of the eccentric and unpredictable Roger adds a layer of intrigue to the story. The supporting cast, including Helms and Dale, also offers strong performances, adding to the film's overall charm.

One of the most impressive aspects of Stretch is its visual style, with Carnahan utilizing a variety of techniques to keep the audience engaged. From split screens to rapid-fire editing, the film boasts a fast-paced and kinetic energy that perfectly matches its frenetic storyline. Additionally, the film's night-time setting allows for some stunning visuals, with neon lights and sprawling cityscapes adding to the overall atmosphere.

Overall, Stretch is a thrilling and entertaining ride that's perfect for fans of action-comedies. While the film may not be for everyone due to its over-the-top humor and graphic violence, those who enjoy this type of film will find a lot to love. With strong performances, a compelling storyline, and impressive visuals, Stretch is a must-see film for anyone who loves a good action-packed comedy.
