Negative Positive
Title: A Fizzle
Review: This is, without a doubt, one of the worst films that I have ever seen. I purchased the video second-hand and was really looking forward to viewing it, especially after a highlight article in "Victoria" magazine on the location of the shoot. The house and garden set and the town in which the film is set are enchanting. But very patchy performances from Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman and a ridiculous script and story line render this film about as dazzling as a wet sparkler on a foggy Fourth of July. Stockard Channing and Dianne Wiest are wonderful, as usual and exude far more sex appeal than their younger co-stars but they disappear for most of the film (magic or just poor directing?). Aidan Quinn is badly miscast as the love interest-come-detective. If you're looking for magic and romantic comedy, you're better off watching re-runs of "Bewitched".
Is the review positive or negative?
