A sweet, pleasant inoffensive, resolutely non hilarious comedy which is fine if you're watching an episode of The Donna Reed Show but tends to set off the ol dismay meter if it's Neil Simon. You stay with it because it is sweet and pleasant and because it has some of your favorite actors doing sweet and pleasant work. Also, it's a nice visual time capsule of Venice, California in the early 80s before the Great Gentrification descended upon the hitherto boho community. And if you're a baseball fan, like me, it's great to see Mr. Anti Launch Angle himself, Charlie Lau, teaching Matthew Broderick to hit. Sure wish that someone was around to teach director Herb Ross how to hit (i.e how to do visual comedy). C plus.
