In his Nobel speech, which tried to explain his method of evasion, Pinter said, "It's a strange moment, the moment of creating characters who up to that moment have had no existence. What follows is fitful, uncertain...
...that paragraph as much a chore to read as it was to write? Any comedy with 11 major actors - not including Sandler's wife Jackie and daughter Sadie, the inevitable turn by Rob Schneider (another Sandler familiar, John Turturro, sat this one out) and a goggle-eyed guinea pig named Bugsy - is either (a) brilliantly dense in the Preston Sturges tradition or (b) just an overcongested mess.
