It's not a total bust, and some of the performances are charming, but it never matches the gleeful, irreverent mischief it had on stage.

Rudnick, adapting his off-Broadway hit, deftly blends uproarious fun and touching gravity.

Wildly uneven, and it aims at the lowest common denominator in its exceedingly broad comedy.

While this may sound intriguing, the picture merely jumps around clumsily from incident to incident.

If nothing else, Rudnick and director Christopher Ashley know how to keep the audience off balance and in stitches.

It's more a series of sketches and momentary inspirations than a story that grows interesting.

It is startling that such a funny play is not so funny a movie.
