(What's this flack about the review itself? It told me enough to know whether to see the movie for myself, and told me enough about the reviewer to gage her reactions against my own.)
I think that Hugh Grant and Dennis Quaid often make fine performances out of good-not-great material. Here, the actors make obvious stereotypes into interesting characters we'd be willing to watch for a couple of hours...
For $10 in San Francisco, it was a bit pricey; for $5 in Tulsa, I'd see it and be grateful.
It's not a side-splitting comedy, but it has its moments. (And some good editing.)
(ps. If you haven't seen Dennis Quaid in "Frequency", keep an eye out for it.)
