In what was obviously a project near and dear to Cusack's heart, the actor (who also co-scripted and produced) plays Hauser, the classic troubled hitman (see "Grosse Pointe Blank") who drowns his sorrows with straight shots of hot sauce.

In Turaqistan, Hauser goes undercover as organizer of the Brand USA Trade Show, an exercise in tackiness whose centerpiece is Yonica's wedding. Hauser keeps trying to take out Omar, with no success, and in the interim has to deal
