Anyone else seen it yet? I thought it was hilarious. Robin Williams is especially good (best performance he's had in quite a while). I think the world it paints is quite humorous - a world where gangsters run the kiddy entertainment business, and every Ice Capades event is really a sleazy mob-run outfit... Good movie.
I'm supposed to go see this one Sunday. I'm kind of torn though...I'm really haven't been a big fan of Williams' comedy flicks, but this one sounds interesting. I also like Danny DeVito. I guess I'll be back to report on my take in a couple of days... x34
He is definitely not the Williams you're used to in this one, x34. No Patch Adams here... He does the insane homicidal madman very well here. It's worth the time/$.
I went to see it with my wife and son (20) last night. Definitely worth seeing. It's actually worth seeing again - I'm sure we missed some of it as we were laughing. Definitely NOT a kids movie.
You guys are right...great movie! Williams played the part perfectly and didn't overpower the movie. I'm not one for spoilers, but I will say that I almost fell out of my seat during the cookie scene... Plus, it had a "Moochie" in the movie... x34
Saw it this afternoon and I really wanted to like it but it just wasn't there. Something was off, not sure what. The cookie scene was definitely hilarious.
