Not bad
20 April 1999
This movie is not bad- not GOOD either, but not bad. Better than I expected. Horribly predictable and some of the jokes misfire, but the characters are likable enough. The courtroom scene with Rip Torn on the stand should have been dispensed with, or better yet, written VERY differently. I know it's a comedy, but a little realism would have been appreciated; even OJ didn't BS that badly (not on the stand, but in depositions etc.). However, the jurors ultimate decision helps make up for the ridiculousness of the whole thing, even if the initial reaction was extremely dumb. I like Jeff Daniels and think Michael Richards was the only good thing about Seinfeld, and consequently they have to fail pretty badly for me to dislike anything they do, so if you don't agree with my view of them, you might very well also not agree with my assessment of this movie.
