Beware, this is not a comedy, in spite of the stars., 22 July 1999
Author: (otter_c@ix.netcom.com) from Mountain View, Ca.

Don't let the presence of the wonderful comic actors Walter Matthau and Carol Burnett mislead you into thinking this might be a comedy with some merit, it's not. It's not even a comedy, even if it tries to be at first.

Plot: Two sad losers court gingerly, fall in love, get married, have a kid, ...........Neither funny enough nor sad enough to watch.
