Serving Sara (2002)
4/10
Serving Sara is nothing but colorful characters, distant landscaped destinations, and weak jokes wrapped around a hallow plot

Warning: Spoilers
Serving Sara is about a Process Server named Joe who is given the biggest job of his life after all the other projects he screwed up from his boss Ray. Joe is sent to serve divorce papers to a Mrs. Sara Moore but Sara runs away from Joe after Joe's rival partner Tony warns her about him cause Ray didn't give Tony the job. Ray is stripped from the job and Tony gets it but Joe doesn't give up. He finds Sara, serves her papers, and gets beaten up by two crime lords henchmen. Sara hitches a bus to find Joe on it and she tells him if he helps her serve her greedy husband she'll give him 1,000,000 bucks. The two then go on a long distance race for the prize fallowing Gordon through airports, cow ranches, and work out clubs while being hunted by Tony and Gordon's head servant Vernon. Now Serving Sara starts off slow showing how Joe messes his jobs up. As soon as he starts his serving job looking for Sara, we all know this is how the movie is. When Sara and Joe join forces, the film goes down hill with the same old idea. The characters are all different and that's good but they get really pathetic near the end. My props to Bruce Campbell as Gordon. This movie though succeeds as a chick flick and not a real comedy. Joe makes bad tasting wine, Joe must reach inside a cows bum for prostate, Tony gets shots at, Sara show's her breast for a free room in a motel, all fairly amusing. Then comes the big chase scene at the ending which we already witnessed in the beginning with Joe and Sara but this chase involves motocross, monster trucks, and cows. Serving Sara is a dull piece of work with no real core story, a total 4 out of 10. See it only if you like Matthew Perry or Elizabeth Hurley, and some Bruce Campbell fans might be disappointed in his role. Try to enjoy it if you can.
