June 1, 2008What was the point? Stick to George Segal and Jane Fonda's version. Carrey and Leoni have some funny moments, though, and Judd Apatow's dialogues can occasionally be spotted.

Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
The movie avoids the rich opportunities to plop Carrey and Leoni into the middle of a political lampoon, and turns to tired slapstick, wigs, false beards, 'funny' bank holdups, and so on. full review

Nick Schager, Slant Magazine
Social commentary mingles with stupid comedy in this humorless update of a 1977 George Segal-Jane Fonda romp. full review

July 28, 2008I liked this movie; I thought it was cute. It was on the same lines as 'Liar, Liar' in comedy.
Take care all,

October 5, 2007Lame & not very funny at all. If you see it on cable it might be not bad or even ok, but if you paid to see it in the theater then I feel bad for you.
