The Whole Shebang Reviews

I didn’t realize this when watching this flick but it is in fact a seriously obscure feature, probably one of the most obscure US features I have ever seen. Indeed, I was the very first listal member who has rated the damned thing and, apparently, only 3 other members have seen it so far. Anyway, the main reason I wanted to see the damned thing was because the lovely Bridget Fonda was involved. Indeed, I always had a weak spot for her and, unfortunately, it would be her final feature film role before retiring from acting in 2002. Coming back to our main feature, I have to admit that it is a rather harmless picture but, to be honest, it wasn’t really entertaining and I really had a hard time to care for the damned thing. Sure, Stanley Tucci and Bridget Fonda did their best with this material but it was just really forgettable and, in fact, even rather boring. Concerning Fonda, it is really sad that she would be in a great movie like ‘Jackie Brown’ and, only 4 years later, would show up in this to end her career on such a low note. Anyway, to conclude, I have seen worse but even though it tried to be whimsical and charming, it didn’t work very well, I’m afraid, and I don’t think it is really worth a look.
