Honestly, I wonder how I ended up watching this flick, I guess it was because there was a decent cast. Indeed, in my opinion, Oliver Platt can be sometime hilarious, he is definitely a really underrated actor and I guess I hoped this flick would be quite funny.

In an attempt to resurrect the slapstick comedy of Laurel and Hardy or The Marx Brothers, Stanley Tucci and Oliver Platt team-up as two out-of-work actors who accidentally stowaway on a ship to hide from a drunken, belligerent lead actor who has sworn to kill them for belittling his talents. Of course, the lead actor end up on the ship as well. Also, a madman (Tony Shalhoub) plots the destruction of the ship and Steve Buscemi is a depressed, suicidal lounge singer named Happy Frank.

"First viewing - Jan. 12th I dug the hell out of Stanley Tucci's directorial debut, Big Night, so I was curious to check out his second film. The chemistry between Tucci and Oliver Platt makes this one well worth a look, as they play very well off of each other. Add to that an impressive cast, and it's even more worthy of attention. The plot is rather silly, but then the whole film is clearly an homage to the early days of comedy films where the jokes mattered more than the plots. The comedy the"
