The Slammin' Salmon


The Slammin' Salmon stars Michael Clarke Duncan and Kevin Heffernan. In this movie, "Slammin'" Cleon Salmon (Duncan), also known as "The Champ," is a former Heavyweight Champion of the World turned owner of a high end Miami seafood restaurant, The Slammin' Salmon. The movie takes a look at one night on the job of The Slammin' Salmon wait staff. During this night, general manager Rich (Heffernan) must motivate his wait staff to produce $20,000 worth of revenues, despite that the restaurant has never pulled in more than $15,000 in one night before. The reason the money is so important that night is because The Champ lost a Japanese albino-hunting related wager and needs to pay off the debt or else the Japanese Yakuza will take his restaurant. The Champ even claims to offer a prize of $10,000 to the top-selling waiter or waitress, while threatening the lowest performing waiter with a beating. Rich also resorts to some pretty desperate measures to bring in the revenues, such as allowing one of his waiters to go without his medication for schizophrenia and even putting a busboy on the wait staff on his first night on the job, partly because Rich is too afraid of The Champ to stand up to him. Hilarity ensues.
