This weekend The Girl and I are going to check out Fun With Dick and Jane. It’s about a suburban couple {Jim Carrey and Tea Leoni} who find themselves in financial ruin after his firm goes belly up. They decide that in order to make ends meet, they will start robbing from big businesses Robin Hood style. Jim Carrey is always good for a laugh, and I am in the mood for something light, so I figure, what the heck.
Let me know what you think if you decide to watch it–or if you have already seen it.
Peace out Girl Scouts & have yourself a great weekend,
~Mavis

Saw it quite a while ago. The re sodding of the lawn was my favorite scene! 🙂
Polly says
As an alternative, you could spend 90 minutes with a couple of slices of chocolate cheesecake. My recommendation, ’cause this is truly a lousy, laugh-free movie. 🙂 But have fun!
Debbie says
Funny movie!

I don’t know about THIS version, but I remember seeing the original (with Jane Fonda) back in the ’70s (or rather, I remember one particular scene, with Jane sitting on a toilet). Pretty tame by today’s standards, but it was pretty shocking at the time!

I remember liking it. I’m not difficult to please when it comes to comedies, and with Jim Carrey, you can’t go wrong. Tea Leoni does a good job, too. It’s a classic, good plot, too.

I like this movie, it’s not the best Jim Carey movie, but I can understand the madness of losing of high powered job and all that takes on!
