an entertaining but ultimately shallow experience
8 March 1999
i went into this movie with high expectations. it looked like juliette lewis' performance would be terrific. though the performances by both leads are good, both actors try to hard to convince the audience that they are retarded. the performances are exactly that, performances. the other problem with the movie is its lack of focus, all the characters are drawn too superficially. the movie suffers from a serious case of the cutes!!! ultimately though i have to say that it is entertaining, and i find it difficult to completely dislike a movie that just wants to entertain. but if you want to see a much better movie about the subject, check out Domminick and Eugene!
