Fun With Dick and Jane
A big corporate VP and his wife become unemployed and begin stealing to makes ends meet in this remake of the 1977 George Segal/Jane Fonda film. This movie gets its name from the reading primer, “Fun With Dick and Jane”, and just like the book, this updated version is rather basic, simplistic, and boring. Jim Carrey and Tea Leoni (Dick and Jane) are one-trick ponies. They give the same comedic performances that you have seen them do many times before. Nothing new here. Just the same recycled and predictable humor. However, if you think Carrey’s schtick is brilliant, then you won’t be disappointed. See Jim act silly. See Tea overact. Hear Jim and Tea talk funny. See Jim grimace. Alien retitles this one, “Mildly Amusing Moments with Jim and Tea.
Alien gives it 2 “Elementary, Watson, Elementary” stars out of 4.
