...table downstairs, where the atmosphere is that of an oh-so Soho art gallery: bare white walls, soft spot-lighting, funky partitioning and, quite fittingly, and exibition of paintings by local artists.

The low ceilings are a little disturbing, but the brightness of the walls--and the food--will soon make you forget the minor discomfort. The paintings are not going to make your eyes bleed; they actually provide a wonderful juxtaposition with the spartan surroundings...
Minor episodic conflicts--the drug test, hazing, a fight, various love interests--are the bare bones of the film. They aren't terribly compelling, nor are they meant to be.

Erin's ex-husband Darrell is a lowlife so inept that he boosts wheelchairs, not cars, for a living. Congressman Dilbeck (the poor man's Wilbur Mills) becomes as obsessed with Erin as the sugar lobby is with keeping this drunken buffoon of a subcommittee chairman in office. Throw in a few dead bodies, and Hiaasen's morality play is off and running like a frisky...
