So typical of modern Hollywood

Rating: Null/10 (7 January 2001)

Most of what I would say has been said in earlier comments so I will keep it short.
This movie did have great acting, but other than that, it is probably the most-overrated movie I have ever seen. It typifies Hollywood in the late 1990's in that it is completely politically correct, stereotypical and elitist. What shlock. If a screenwriter were told to sit down and write a script that derided every aspect of American life that liberal Hollywood actors, directors, producers etc. despise, and to do it in as stereotypical and obnoxious (not funny, except for a few rare moments) a manner as possible, this movie would be the end result. I saw this on video about four months after the Oscars and I expected to enjoy it. Instead I found a (bad) propaganda film which thankfully will have little actual impact on society and will be forgotten within five years.
