During the opening credits I already had an idea of ouch, the film will be something special. It seems like a childish movie, but the story is not at all.
The genre on the box was black comedy, but don't think you're going to be stuck all the time now. I did think Robin Williams was so over it at times that he was rather irritating instead of funny.
I'll have to watch it again to really give an opinion on it, but for now it's in the positive sense.

Fairly entertaining movie. Too bland for adults, too rude for kids.

Such a typical snack. Nice and black with children's shows as a guideline, with at least a few successful (bland) jokes. It's just kind of hilarious to see Norton constantly with such a happy face and Williams playing an over-the-top character. Overall, of course, the crime story is wafer-thin and the obligatory romance cringe-inducing; all in all not so good, but enough entertainment if you go into it lightly.
