If nothing else, this movie does not disappoint. The plot outline sounds like a cheesy (excuse the pizza pun) trio of love stories in small town Connecticut. The plot is, in fact, a cheesy trio of love stories in small town Connecticut.
It was somewhat intriguing, however, to see Julia Roberts prior to her man stealing, set of weirdly-named twins days when she was a rising star instead of one who is now irate because she’s been out of the Hollywood scene being a mommy and reportedly gets no offers now that she wants them again.
But it was also tiresome to see her in that same role of tough cookie, street smart dame (a la Pretty Woman and Erin Brockovich)
The 1980s big hair, at least, was good for a laugh.
Highlight: When Daisy destroys a Porche with fetid vats of fowl smelling fish.
Lowlight: When everyone lives happily ever after – way too cliché. (I’m also the one who always rooted for Brutus/Bluto over Popeye.)
