"Say It Isn't So"
(Reviewed March 23, 2001)
-
This bomb is being billed as "From the guys who brought you `There's Something About Mary.'" That would be the Farrelly Brothers. Unfortunately, however, all they did was produce this timewasting trifle. They didn't write it, and they didn't direct it. And boy, does it show.
Look, I like Heather Graham as much as any other guy with a working wang. But this movie is just not much good. One of its main faults is that it does not even have the integrity to be true to its "gosh how shocking" theme of romantic incest. Chris Klein plays an amiable doofus who falls in love with ditzy Heather Graham, but is told later that she is the daughter of his long-lost birth mother, making them brother and sister. But mighty soon thereafter, we find out that this was all a lie to get them to break up. So much for shocking!
Also, if you still harbor any desire to see this movie, be warned that IT CONTAINS ABSOLUTELY NO NUDITY. Heavenly Heather may have stripped nekkid in the (awful) "Boogie Nights," but she keeps completely under wraps here, and so does everyone else.
Convinced to stay home now?
