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.

Top CriticSpade serves as both star and co-writer of this lame, crass romantic comedy. Most of the jokes he's written fall flat, and his delivery isn't much better.

Top CriticNothing but a cynical, astonishingly inept attempt to copy Mary's formula.

Top CriticThere's not enough story to get you interested in Dylan's plight and not enough laughs to compensate for the lack of a story.
01/01/00
Top CriticThe picture shamelessly steals gags from the vastly superior There's Something About Mary.

Top CriticCan't decide whether it wants to charm or gross out its audience!
01/01/00
Top CriticToo many of the jokes are predictable, and, as a result, not especially funny.
01/01/00
Top CriticMaybe Adam Sandler isn't so bad after all.
01/01/00
Top CriticSpade's wise-ass persona grows tiresome fast.
01/01/00
Top CriticLost & Found is such a low-class, low-laughs rip-off that it makes "Mary" resemble a Noel Coward comedy of manners!
01/01/00
Top CriticWhy 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?
01/01/00
Top CriticIf 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.
01/01/00
Top CriticIt would be difficult to imagine material more wrong for Spade than Lost & Found.
01/01/00
Top CriticIt makes Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls seem like Shakespeare in Love.
01/01/00
Top CriticA movie about characters of limited intelligence, who wander through the lonely wastes of ancient and boring formulas.
01/01/00
Top Critic
A rancid little nothing of a movie!

Top CriticThere’s precious little to boogie about in Lost & Found!
