You'll probably have more fun waiting in the popcorn line.

Eventually, "Lost and Found" becomes a mellow, romance-lite, comedy with a few good zingers and the heart of a puppy-dog.

If the standards for feature films starring former Saturday Night Live cast members weren't already so low, you could be forgiven for thinking Lost & Found was dragging them down.

Too many of the jokes are predictable, and, as a result, not especially funny.

Lost & Found is such a low-class, low-laughs rip-off that it makes "Mary" resemble a Noel Coward comedy of manners!

A love story, but Spade is way too smug to appear the slightest bit sincere in his scenes with Marceau for it to work at all on that level.

A movie about characters of limited intelligence, who wander through the lonely wastes of ancient and boring formulas.

There's not enough story to get you interested in Dylan's plight and not enough laughs to compensate for the lack of a story.

The toilet humor and There's Something About Mary dog joke retreads lead Lost astray.

It would be difficult to imagine material more wrong for Spade than Lost & Found.

A mundane sitcom with feature pretensions, the kind where the comic 'situation' is simply a coat-rack for hanging a rag-tag assortment of inflated sight gags and telegraphed punch lines.

Nothing but a cynical, astonishingly inept attempt to copy Mary's formula.

Contains some chuckles, one or two big laughs, zero believable romance between Spade and Marceau, and a weak and inconceivable ending.

This weakly plotted film needed a lot more oomph.

Why was the sight of scrawny Woody Allen kissing pretty Diane Keaton never revolting, while scrawny David Spade kissing beautiful Sophie Marceau in Lost & Found is the creepiest cinematic sight of the year?

In place of Mary's endearingly timid Ben Stiller and luminous Cameron Diaz, Lost & Found gives us the irritatingly pompous Spade and a glamorously beautiful black hole of a personality in Sophie Marceau.

Spade's wise-ass persona grows tiresome fast.
