Reviews for For Richer or Poorer
I wish Tim Allen would go back to cocaine and stop making movies. In fact, the good of the world demands it.
Not a terrible romantic comedy. The Amish stuff has been done before, there are some moments in here.
A culture-clash comedy that's less a movie than an overproduced, four-times-too-long sitcom.
