Product: Keeping the Faith (2000)
Rating: 2.0
Molodramatic, mopey dopey.
Another romantic comedy, staring Ben Stiller star of Mystery Men, Directed and co.-starring Edward Norton, and the love of both of their lives Jenna Elfman, of TV's Dharma & Gregg. Probably one of the funniest romantic comedies, great chemistry between everyone and a generally witty screenplay. Ben Stiller is a Rabbi, Edward Norton is a priest, and Jenna Elfman is a workaholic, long time friend of both of them. Ben and Edward have not seen Jenna in over 10 years and don't realize that she will be completely different. She is not a tough tom boy anymore, she is a grown up women. Finally they meet, and eventually they both figure out that they are in love with her, it just takes to much of the movie to find that out, and that is what is depressing. It does have a wildly funny, witty script, great chemistry, and good performances, but towards the end turns to Melodramatic, dopey and dumb. It can be funny, it can be cute, and it can be enjoyable, but some things can't save films, such as the fact that I believe that Jenna Elfman ends up with the wrong guy, and it is shocking to think that just that can ruin a movie, but it did, I have no interest in seeing it again because she ended up with the wrong guy. A complicated, mopey, dopey, melodramatic Jerry Springer sort of movie,, just you average love triangle film.
