-is the best and only way to describe this smarmy movie. First of all, Robin Williams is way to old to play this part, but I guess they needed him for his inspirational message. That's the least of this movies problems, the script is awful, the direction and acting obvious, and the score sacharine. All of it seems designed for one purpose, to manipulate the audience. I don't need to be hammered over the head repeatedly about what a great saint Patch Adams (aka Robin Williams) is and how evil the medical industry is. This movie is that subtle (Not!). Thanks but no thanks; rent Mrs. Doubtfire instead.
