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.

"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 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"
