Nurse
Betty ---------------->
I really
wanted to like this movie. But except for Renee Zellwegger being
her imitable adorable loopy self, other parts fell flat. Morgan
Freeman and Chris Rock in particular were given very little good writing
to work with. Aaron Eckhart as Betty's husband Del makes the most of his
fifteen minutes, aided by a mullet and some great aviator frames.
For one tiny moment, when Betty visits the set of "a reason to
love" the film achieves a profound commentary about television and
our perception of, and dependence on, celebrity. Unfortunately,
comedy is hard, and this just didn't work. One word to the
Hollywood god's - Crispin Glover and Pruitt Taylor Vince deserve a hell
of a lot more work.
