Ritchie manages to make us dislike both main characters, which is a dubious achievement indeed.Gone are Ritchies style and wit.

Thats especially true considering that its played for an uneasy and unsuccessful combination of drama and intended laughs.

Its hard to remember the last time a certified celebrity gave a performance so monotonous, unimaginative, and all around tiresome to watch.

With corny lines like Run my little vixen run the film walks too fine a line between being an old fashioned romance and being just plain absurd.
