This cute comedy is not a family film, although some of the adult humor would go over the head of a young child. The friendship and chemistry between the two male characters is refreshing. A light and pleasant romance enhances the story development. Casting was appropriate featuring Christopher Walkin as a mobster with comic aspirations to develop a lofty vocabulary. Good music, colorful characters, interesting scenery, unexpected twists of the plot and cute animals all work together very well. The dialog has many funny lines, some of which are subtle. The plot is neither simplistic nor excessively complex. This movie is politically correct without trying to be which is delightful.
