BrianSez's Review

Summary - Great 4.0

An Alan Arkin classic movie that adds humor to a stressful existence. This movie has lots of wit and memorable scenes. Natasha Lyonne is the main character in this film, and along with Alan, Melissa Tomei, and Kevin Corrigan add a healthy amount of sarcastic wit that will have you laughing uncontrollably despite the depressing undertones. Want to see Natasha Lyonne and Melissa Tomei dance with a vibrator to “we want the funk”? Just one wacky example from many…. This is a must-see movie for any Arkin fan.
