Barren ground for the comic charms of Jennifer Aniston, as a hesitant fiancé investigating the possibility that her Pasadena family was the model for the Robinsons in The Graduate. That would make Shirley MacLaine Mrs. Robinson, and Kevin Costner the nuptial Lochinvar. (A self-described "dilettante Che biographer," he ignorantly pronounces his subject's surname as "Gwa-vara.") When those two once again come face to face at the climax, the music comes from a different 1967 movie, The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly. The script is similarly heavy-handed, a hammering rhythm of easy set-ups and smashes. With Mark Ruffalo, Richard Jenkins, and Mena Suvari; directed by Rob Reiner. (2005) — Duncan Shepherd
