Yeh, you've mentioned this before. I just don't buy it. Both flicks are ill-conceived messes that tried to play the satire card when their producers realized they were too assinine to work as drama. And besides, "more clever than Showgirls" is like saying "more sane than Gary Busey" - it might be true, but it's not really much of an accomplishment.

Good call. The scene where he's covered in Vaseline is too much. They marketed that movie all wrong. I mean, it's a Carl Hiassen book, which are all about corrupt power destroying his beautiful homestate of Florida, and they pushed the movie as "COME SEE DEMI MOORE'S TITS"

I'd love to see more Hiassen novels made into movies.
