Sorry that I'm even commenting. Plunked down the money to see this film with my fiancee, and we both walked out of the movie about 45 minutes into it. The premise was highly suspect, but we were willing to suspend our disbelief long enough to let it work. Unfortunately, it didn't, and it didn't even come close.
Queen Latifah's character was simply obnoxious, and the situations that the writer put forth just were too unbelievable to work as a story. To make matters worse, in 45 minutes of story, there were no redeeming qualities to either of the main characters, save for Steve Martin's funny trick to win over a client by bribing a waiter. The few enjoyable moments in the film were Eugene Levy's, and those were too rehashed and too inconsequential to be worth sticking around for.
Voted 1 out of 10, and hope not to see anything this bad again.
