GREAT chemistry between the leads, 25 June 2000
8/10
Author: simmons-4 from Seattle, WA

I'm stunned at the low IMDB voter ratings for this movie. My wife and I find it to be a very winning piece by two of our favorite performers. With the glaring exception of one outrageous, ill-conceived scene, this movie makes us smile each time we see it. The fact that it had some reality basis makes it just a little bit more intriguing. I HIGHLY recommend it.
