Entirely too predictable..

I knew where this movie was going before the actors probably did when they first read the script. It was apparent that the awkward and warped relationship between Albert Brooks' character and the shiksa played by Holly Hunter was going to fuel this entire film. This whole thing was to celebrate their nerdy bond and their repertoire together. The unreality of it all when Holly Hunter's character had fallen in "love" with William Hurt's character, but kept taking breaks from it all to run back to Albert Brooks' character again, was absurb. Then again, that's what movies are. They're unreality. At least most of the good romantic ones do tend to mimic reality, which is something I can't say for this film. The news segments were pretty cool, but the underlying love story was total garbage.
