When I first saw Fat Man and Little Boy (Siskel and Ebert to the unenlightened) review this film, I was annoyed at the subject matter. I was like, “Yeah right. A hardcore lesbian would change for a guy…sure…” I unfortunately waited until it came out on video to see it. Mistake. Fatty and 4 eyes definitely ruined this film for me. It was much deeper than their little minds could grasp.
This is the first film I saw Ben Affleck in. Can you say yummy? He looks a lot better with a goatee. I was heartbroken when I heard that he was hanging out with that dork, Matt Damon. Oh well.
I am not going to say anything about the plot because it would mess everything up. Let me just say one thing – the end is so stupid. So lame and bizarre that it is exactly the sort of thing that a guy would think would be a perfect solution to the problem. Guys are so stupid. Kevin Smith knows this.
Are comic books a theme with Kevin Smith? What do you think?
