Big, SLUGGISH, Impaired Fish

Rating: 5/10 (8 February 2004)

A summary which is meant to be the precise opposite of this film: short and painless.
The movie is a monolithic bore (yawn, yawn, triple yawn...) Mostly because of this, somewhat due to phony-sounding southern accents along with excessive narration and lethargic editing, the lead actors are neither engaging nor believable. Some nifty set decorations (but oh the drudgery one has to sit through between eye-popping scenes), and a great turn by Danny DeVito, and not much else. Snooze at home and skip this overwrought slug of a flick.
