...Phoenix, they spend time with Lily (Allison Janney), Verona's former boss, and her husband Lowell (Jim Gaffigan). Paging the ugly Americans! Looped by noon, Lily brays in a glass-shattering voice about her kids, who are within their easy earshot, and wonders why she hasn't been accepted at the local country club. As for Lowell, he's been crushed by her tart hectoring into a mewling collection of prejudices. So Burt and Verona move on. After all, if Phoenix harbors two hateful people, the whole city must be tainted...
...Yorkers might have dealt with the trauma of the attacks, a year later.The filmmakers examine myriad emotional states—fertile ground for the talented ensemble company.

Gaffigan and Swardson are at the top of the comedy circuit today and few could make a convincing case that Breuer offers a better show...
...life at Harvard. Here’s some advice to go along with it: save the big bank for big names, get more creative with large-scale but low-cost, and don’t waste our money on “in between.” If bringing Gaffigan instead of Breuer means last spring’s concert could have been upgraded from Busta Rhymes to Outkast, I’ll take a better show by Outkast and an equal laugh from Gaffigan...
