ÖZET

Robin Williams and Kurt Russell play two of life's failures in this all-American whimsy set in small-town California. Williams's banker lives in the shadow of a missed pass at a high-school football game; Russell's former star quarterback is now on the skids. When Williams decides the town needs a little encouragement and some moral fibre, we're into a rehash of It's a Wonderful Life, except that the characters are one-dimensional, there aren't any jokes, and the tone set by writer Ron Shelton and director Roger Spottiswoode is glutinous in the extreme. It's sad that Williams has a weakness for this sort of material, when his talents so obviously would be better served elsewhere.
