Marty Short, Kurt Russell and Mary Kay Place do an excellent job getting the laughs. The plot is frankly ridiculous so if you're seeking a thought provoking movie, keep looking. If you just want to have some laughs with your family at the expense of some well crafted funnies, pop this movie in. Kurt Russell is truly funny in this comedic role. Combine this with classic Marty Shorty straight-man and you've got a winner. The child actors in the film also do a fabulous job of pulling their weight and Mary Kay Place defines oblivious sexy mom in her role. Grab the popcorn, turn off the phones and settle in!
