Labored oddity to do with the ungifted son (Oliver Platt) of a famous funnyman (Jerry Lewis), who, after bombing in Vegas, retreats to his boyhood home of Blackpool, England, searching for fresh material but instead discovering family skeletons. Director and co-writer Peter Chelsom puts his stamp on the proceedings with a finale that outdoes that of Hear My Song in protracted implausibility. Flashes of comic brilliance from the jug-eared and Brillo-haired Lee Evans, who's not given a lot of opportunity. Steady, unceasing blasts of photographic dullness from Eduardo Serra (A.F.C.). With Leslie Caron, Richard Griffiths, Oliver Reed. (1995) — Duncan Shepherd
