It reminds me of those Cary Grant screwball comedies.

With his wild, thinning hair and general look of disease, Cage's interpretation of Jack's desperation is a total hoot, bravely unglamorous and consistently agitated.

The romantic comedy version of its setting: an overgrown theme park that momentarily amuses, wears down the body and spirit, but mentally stays behind. [Blu-ray]

An engaging (if overlong) romantic comedy...

A solid B movie with old-school comedy reminiscent of Mel Brooks. Parker and Cage give standard play. It's James Caan that gives the film its spark. He's marvelous.

Comedy version of, 'Indecent Proposal.' Oddly enough, both of them are equally stupid.

Funny romantic comedy, lots of Elvis jokes, and a lighthearted Nicholas Cage.

Dated screwball comedy has sexual situations, profanity.

Tasteless, one-joke sex comedy.
