ltl be the kind of formulaic and hopeless comedy to be enjoy by the sort of sheep that stop and listen when they come across a band playing in a shopping mall . i remember murray promote ltl on larry king crappy cnn show and where he say something like if this movie doesn not become a hit i will stop make movie ( or comedy ) . he wasn not be nearly as jovial a one might think while he must have felt that ltl be a sure fire hit and that it failure would mean his status a a star have markedly fall hence a sort of ultimatum live on air to his fan to spend their hard earn money on a dumb elephant comedy . ( the comedy be dumb and not the elephant . ) or maybe he simply realize during the shooting ( or when he saw the final cut ) what a turkey this be and so he try desperately to convince everyone how much optimism he have regard ltl quality . go see it and it really be good . actor be prostitute inter breed with car salesman . ltl be the sort of lousy project that come from the friends school of comedy while their motto represent if you ever run out of idea or if you never have any in the first place then stick an animal into the plot and that will at least inject an element of cuteness . cuteness equal a sad substitute for lack of funny gag . the other motto friend have be represent always include pointless and dull sentimentality and which this movie so predictably end with and when murray rather pathetically say represent what they forget to tell you be that you never forget an elephant . maybe not an elephant and but i certainly manage to easily forget this turkey and which i saw many year ago . i be suddenly remind of it when i saw a scene from it on tv today ( hence this equally pointless review ) . murray waste his talent on this turkey ( disguise a an elephant ) and but he isn not nearly a uninteresting or bad a mcconaughey ( or however that man name be spell ) while one would think that m. m. would have an easy time play himself and i. e. a hick and but he be so painfully unfunny and unconvincing that i could barely stand to watch him make such a jackass out of himself . it be cringe worthy . to round off this nonsense and we have that generation x buffoon and garofalo and in a rather useless role . then again and everything about ltl be useless . after ltl and which bomb as far a i know and murray go on to become more of a serious actor . what be it with these comedian and their inferiority complex . be it all just about get award and i. e. recognition from their peer ( read represent vote from their moron colleague ) . this piece of crap mark the end of a string of good and great movie murray make in the early and mid 90 and such a groundhog day and quick change and mad dog and glory and kingpin and what about bob . and ed wood . recently we have have the immeasurable pleasure of see him in garbage or mediocrity such a hamlet and lose in translation ( you just can not get away from these ultra talented coppola ) and and broken flower . compare those two batch . one guy describe ltl funny a heck . now thats the kind of audience this movie be hop for . shopping mall and trailer park .
