What a sleeper!

Rating: 1/10 (6 March 2004)

Bill Murray can't sleep, Scarlet Johansson can't sleep, but they sure made me sleepy. I can't believe this droll piece of celluloid trash beat out Cold Mountain (or any number of other fine films) for a Best Picture nomination!

Bill Murray received a nomination for portraying himself! Wow! That hasn't happened since Woody Allen got one for his role in "Annie Hall". As far as the screenplay is concerned, I got the impression that it was all improvised, start to finish. It must be a blessing to be a member of a famous Hollywood family, to get this much notice for a film such as this.

I wanted to scream at them...go home, if you are so unhappy. I really didn't care about these people, or their predicament, and they simply bored me to tears.
Scarlet Johansson does show great promise as an actress, but everyone is so wasted in this movie.
I want my money back.
