    ★★½

    Watched for the first time as an adult with my kids, so I have no nostalgic lens. This is a very stupid movie saved by its self awareness and its stars’ charisma. Some of the jokes totally got me. I dug the fourth wall breaking. My kids LOVED it, they were really into the slapstick fights.

    Trigger warning for crimes against antiquities. I liked a lot about this movie, which is sort of a shaggy hang out movie with a core of heartbreaking loss. I especially loved the ending. But some of my favorite scenes were Isabella Rossalini’s daughters descending and swirling around her like dragonflies.

    Absolute stinker of a movie, not even terribly fun to hate watch. Charisma free performances of barely there characters. The stakes can’t get any lower when you DGAF about any of these characters.

    This is one of those movies I saw a thousand times on Comedy Central, which tricks you into thinking you know a movie. But really, you see bits and pieces all jumbled and out of order. Costner’s big speech, I could have sworn that came much later in the movie. And I always thought I just missed the explanation of what Sarandon was doing the whole time she was hanging out at the ballpark, did she work there or something?…
