All in all, not a bad film entertainment wise however I expected something smarter with more humor and execution then there was.
Seems Deniro's character lost most of his appeal as well as the whole film turning more into a, "It's OK...they really liked these characters and situation so much, we don't have to work on it as hard and tons of people will still fill the box office" kinda film.
Dustin Hoffman was the most talented of the players and I'm not particularly a fan of his and he entertained me more. Barbra... she should have pick a different film because she came off like a dusty IL' sports car with flat tires and cobwebs yet, no matter how dilapidated it looks, underneath you still believes there's a sports car in there somewhere but it is what ya see, if ya know what I'm talking about.
We could have used Stiller stepping it up to keep things really interesting and pick up the slack yet they wrote him a bit toward the back and thats too bad.
Just with all the talent and pull they had behind this to make it 'really' funny and entertaining, you'd think they would have. Yet a gun with no bullets is still just a hunk of metal. Naw, they weren't shooting blanks yet the powder was a bit too wet for me.
Most of you will probably be happy saying your money was spent well, yet I believe those more hardcore watchers not wanting just a cookie cutter production will be disappointed a bit with the results.
6.5 outta 10
