I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

The movie runs out of plot and jokes well before the end of a two-hour running time, long for a light comedy.

There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
