A waste of time
16 February 2005 | by (Mexico) – See all my reviews

It's incredible how awful this movie is. Very sad to see De Niro, Hoffman and even Streisand in this fiasco. Another example of US filming decadence. Stupid history, forced situations and poor performances. The best thing about the movie is the little boy acting with signs. The situation about the families is totally ridiculous and at the end everything is solved as usual, the happy ending and everyone are in peace with each other. Predictable situations are present all the time, since the fake breast, Stiller's speech under drugs, pregnancy, etc. Another movie with the same structure: a preface, a simple comedy/drama and a happy ending. No more to think, everything is solved. Another stupid movie to forget very quickly (I hope). No more to say about it. Awful
