This causes much dismay amongst Dwayne who is sick of his father's spending habits and his unpleasant personality. He spends his money worse than a drunken sailor on big screen TVs, pools, and cars, but somehow has managed to not blow all ten million yet. Dwayne's dad (played by Fred Ward who scores some of the biggest and dirtiest laughs in the film) was in the military and won the ten million dollar jackpot on the lottery years ago. Meanwhile we are also introduced to Dwayne (McBride) and Travis (Swardson), two losers who work for ten dollars an hour cleaning Dwayne's father's pool. They fight and then go on with their merry way. His best friend Chet (Ansari) is disgusted when he learns that Nick is sleeping with his twin sister Kate (Vadsaria). The film is about Nick (Eisenberg), a pizza man who promises your pizza in thirty minutes or less. It relies on that instead of the chemistry between Jesse Eisenberg and Aziz Ansari. 30 Minutes or Less is a highly energetic comedy with many laughs, but way too many action set pieces. Diliberti was said to be "vaguely aware" of it, but after you watch the film, then read the story, it becomes pretty clear that he was more than that. Unfortunately it wasn't, and the bomb exploded killing him. Though the screenwriter Michael Diliberti denies it, it's pretty clear with the striking similarities that 30 Minutes or Less is trying to mirror the 2003 incident where a pizza delivery man was forced to rob a bank with, what he thought, was a fake bomb around his neck.
