Review:

It might have been more effective had any of the actors actually posed with the items in quesiton instead of painfully cutting the image together in photoshop.

• Trailer: C

Review:

I have a hard time understanding exactly what the purpose of the film is. This looks like a movie that's trying to be outlandish just for the sake of being such without having an emotional core.

Oscar Prospects:

Despite the push for getting Paul Giamatti an Oscar nomination for American Splendor, directors Shari Springer Berman and Robert Pulcini may have another campaign on their hands for Kevin Kline. Maybe this one will succeed.

Release Date:
