Serving Sara

This is how American studios imagine comedy for everyone. They cast a well-known actor and a charming actress as the main couple, use a few jokes, add some kind of plot, mix it all together, and create something hopelessly mediocre and interchangeable. Matthew Perry has basically had a template for his characters since the days of Friends and he still uses the same facial expressions, which, to be fair, are quite enjoyable if you don't watch him consistently, but they're not enough for a feature film. And Elizabeth, well, she may be attractive, but she's not a good enough actress to solely maintain the film at an acceptable level. Simply put, the film lacks a good script and quality jokes. Overall impression: 45%. (06/06/2011)
