The funniest part of this movie is knowing they thought they were making some throwback screwball comedy. Didn't work. Madonna is a terrible actress and Sean Penn is unlikable from the very beginning. That said....there's something about this movie that I didn't see coming and was partially entertained by. Like all the hand stuff?! It's like a Sonny Chiba Street Fighter villain. That stuff was kind of fun.
