Boring, repetitive and sophomoric

Rating: 2/10 (16 August 2000)

What can be funny in 25 minutes can be excruciatingly mind-numbing in quadruple that time. A few decent gags, but it is a sorry reflection on IMDB's constituencies to have this throwaway ranked in the top 250 movies of all time! I will refrain from calling the roll of at least 1000 better movies. Today's comedies too often confuse ridicule with wit, cynicism with insight, derision with revelation, and misanthropy with humor. Putting together never-ending scenes of nasty people saying nasty things over and over again does not constitute a classic comedy.
