Occasionally funny, but generally dull

Rating: 4/10 (26 April 1999)

Okay, I can admit that I did find this film to be funny at times, especially at the beginning, but this really isn't a funny movie. Most of the humor just didn't work for me, and towards the end of the movie, I was getting somewhat bored while waiting for the predictable climax. There is some good talent that is wasted in this movie, and I am still trying to figure out what convinced Kathy Bates to appear in this movie. She is WAY too talented to spend her time repeating dumb lines and dancing on the sidelines. And as for Adam Sandler, I think that he can be a funny guy, but he needs to stop playing all these misfit oddballs and make more films like "The Wedding Singer". He needs to learn that stupidity is not necessarily funny.
