One viewing is enough

Rating: Null/10 (28 February 1999)

This is a Farrelly Brothers movie, which means, like "Dumb And Dumber" and "Kingpin," there is shock humor galore. The problem is that it means you can really only watch the movie once. Once you know what's coming, the Farrelly Brothers lack the ability to keep you laughing with timing or technique. It's all about how far out the humor goes. After abusing the dog or the opening bit about "The frank or the beans," you'll be laughing the first time you see it. After that, you'll know what's coming, and you'll feel the boredom start to set in. It does get points for the romantic heart beating beneath it, but this isn't exactly a date movie. Be careful who you see it with.
