Peter Farrelly and
Bobby Farrelly, the impish impresarios of gross-out comedy, take their body function-inspired humor to new extremes in this mixture of live action and animation.
Bill Murray stars as
Frank, a zoo worker suffering from the effects of an unknown malady he contracted after eating an egg contaminated with simian saliva. Unknown to
Frank, the inside of his body is actually a city (the City of
Frank) teeming with cellular life, where the mysterious illness he's fighting is an invading enemy that must be defeated at all costs. It's up to
Osmosis Jones (voice of
Chris Rock), a white blood cell cop, and
Drix (voice of
David Hyde Pierce), a rookie over-the-counter medication, to hunt down and stop a lethal virus (
Laurence Fishburne) who's got an inferiority complex. Along the way, the partners visit
Frank's runny nostrils (Booger Dam) and a bar called, appropriately enough, the Zit.
Osmosis Jones costars
Molly Shannon and
Chris Elliott, and features the vocal talents of
William Shatner, producer
Joel Silver, and singer
Brandy Norwood.
