Roger Ebert doesn't know his fat bat from his elbow! This is a wonderful movie
15 November 2003 | by (United States) – See all my reviews

One of the last great movies by a usually great actor (Burt of course). The movie is funny, has characters you love, and the usual feel good ending. I mean is there something wrong with that(in this day and age)?
