BYE BYE, LOVE . As three divorced fathers, Matthew Modine , Paul Reiser and Randy Quaid stumble their way through this McMovie about custody exchanges and mid-life romantic grief. His movie, which unlike last summer's The Flintstones , has the quick pacing and good cheer necessary to get audiences past a typically slim, gadget-ridden storyline. Casper doesn't do too bad in that department, either. Also starring Cathy Moriarty and Eric Idle .
Girl meets boy, girl loses boy, girl wins boy back.
But for simple romantic pleasure, you can't beat this film's bright green Irish setting and the winning performance of Minnie Driver in the female lead. This is a cute, lightweight, and amiably sexual movie with a lot of heart to make up for its lack of originality. Clancy and the screenwriters blow the opportunity to provide a larger understanding of the whole drug-war issue, and what they have left is little more than a pleaser for Clancy's fans. Harrison Ford gives one of his least interesting action-movie performances as uncorruptible CIA agent Jack Ryan. Though thoroughly crude, the cartoonish entourage of Slacker -inspired storegoing misfits are frequently funny, and the picture has the charm of something made exactly as the filmmakers wanted it, with all idiosyncrasies intact.
