I guess I just don't get it...

Rating: 6/10 (28 September 2002)

because this movie was a yawn-er. The character development was excellent and the interaction between Scott and Newman was good as well. Gleason was perfect as Fats. But the movie just dragged and dragged and dragged and dragged...
I know, I'll be shot down, criticized for having some type of myopic view, lacking "true artistic appreciation" etc. but if this ever comes on TV, I'll turn the channel.
In this case, the outstanding character development was not enough for me. To each his/her own. Quite a disappointment though
