Dexter King (Jeff Goldblum) is an actor, who plays straight man to Ron Anderson (Rowan Atkinson) and is desperate to do something more with his life. With an Allergy to most things, he goes for his jabs at the hospital and finds the women of his dreams, Kate Lemmon (Emma Thompson) and there begins his quest for the girl. The adventure has many funny moments and lots of memorable scenes, as dexter loses his job, gets the girl, gets a new job, loses the girl, gets the girl, etc.
Surprisingly the humour mostly revolves around Jeff Goldblum and not Rowan Atkinson, who is basically an egotistical Ar*ehole who is there for us to hate, and although not the Rowan Atkinson we all know, he is still amusing. Emma Thompson shows us her talent for comedy also, and the results are pretty good.
Worth a Laugh 7/10
