Bad Samaritan A valet (Robert Sheehan)<br />

develops a clever scam to burglarize<br />

the houses of rich customers. Things go<br />

smoothly until he robs the wrong customer<br />

(David Tennant), and discovers a woman<br />

being held captive in his home. Afraid of<br />

going to prison, he leaves the woman there<br />

and makes a call to the police, who find<br />

nothing when they investigate. Now, the valet<br />

must endure the wrath of the kidnapper<br />

who seeks revenge on him, all while desperately<br />

trying to find and rescue the captive<br />

woman he left behind. Also stars Carlito Olivero,<br />

rich playboy from Mexico’s richest family<br />

and “Kate” (Anna Faris), a working class<br />

single mom of three hired to clean Leonardo’s<br />

luxury yacht. After unjustly firing<br />

Kate and refusing to pay her, Leonardo falls<br />

overboard when partying and wakes up on<br />

the Oregon coast with amnesia. Kate shows<br />

up at the hospital and, to get payback, convinces<br />

Leonardo he is her husband and<br />

puts him to work - for the first time in his<br />

life. At first miserable and inept, Leonardo<br />

slowly settles in.<br />

Reitman (“Up in the Air”) and screenwriter<br />

Diablo Cody (“Juno”). Marlo (Charlize<br />

Theron), a mother of three including<br />

brother (Mark Duplass). Hesitant to the extravagance<br />

at first, Marlo comes to form a<br />

unique bond with the thoughtful, surprising,<br />

and sometimes challenging young nanny<br />

named Tully (Mackenzie Davis).<br />
