There's Something About Mary
Yes, I laughed during Jim Abrahams' "Mafia!," but even in mid-chortle I was reminded of the gut-busting experience last week of seeing "There's Something About Mary." It is the new movie's misfortune to arrive after, instead of before, the funniest comedy of the year. ... "Mafia!" is the kind of movie that can never entirely fail, but can succeed to various degrees. It doesn't rank with Abraham's earlier efforts. And in a town where "There's Something About Mary" is playing, it's not the one to choose.
