Mar 4, 2003 · This is a great film. Fantastic humour, with every line perfectly delivered. Judy Davis and Kevin Spacey work so well together and you feel every biting comment and it makes you laugh. Denis Leary is simply brilliant, playing the referee to the warring spouses while hiding out in their house to evade the police.
