Preposterous mess
21 June 2004
Warning: Spoilers
If you're going to serve up merely a succession of smartass campy jokes (dotted with a little naive social criticism), you're taking a huge chance with your audience's patience. If you aspire, more sensibly, to place the jokes within a deeper fable/parable/satire, you have to understand some fundamental rules of storytelling, such as: Your audience will accept the impossible, but not the improbable. I, for one, am willing to buy that a guy would and could build a robot wife who also functioned as a cash machine. But I refuse to believe that she would dispense singles. [END SPOILER]

Most of the jokes are silly and self-indulgent. The plot makes no sense. The actors are squashed under the director's and producers' elephantiasis. Go! Enjoy!
