I can see why most of the typical movie go’ers would give this a low rating... because it isn’t vulgar, disgusting, it doesn’t involve blowing up everything and everyone or killing.
Movies which are witty, crafty, and in good taste are neither appreciated or rated fairly. Case in point... “The Majestic” staring Jim Carrie was rated a flop just as this one has been... and for all the same reasons but mainly because both were great movies.
