Nor does it have the sparkle we expect from a contemporary fairy tale. But those are minor problems compared to the fact that the movie is not funny. A quick fix would be to trim about 15 minutes from it, but that would just make what isn't funny go past faster. Dalton looks like he's being a good sport about all of this, and if you like Drescher, you're in luck. There she is, for an hour and 15 minutes longer than you get to see her at one time on The Nanny.
Life can be good.
It all depends on what you bring to the theater with you.
