I've been a fan of Ladies' Man for awhile now. Hell, until now I even had the movie poster as my screen saver at work for the last 2 months. Unfortunately, the SNL character skit going to the big screen has become even more anti-comedy than I had thought possible. 'Skit gone scat' I say.
The problem with this film, as with Pat, A Night at the Roxbury, Stewart Smalley(sp?)and other SNL character films (with the exception of Wayne's World), is that these characters simply aren't interesting enough to stretch into a 90 minute film. Granted there are some humorous moments in Ladies' Man, but for the most part, the film is puerile and painful to watch. I'll grant this one a very generous 3 on a scale of 1-10.
