I had a surprise Courier cover on my Desk from C2W on Wednesday. I opened the Envelope to find two tickets for the Movie Fun with Nick and Jane.
The movie had a special screening organized at Cultural centre of Russia at Peddar Road by Sony pictures and C2W. The movie started at 7.00. And had no Interval nor we could see any staff members of C2W or Sony at the Theatre Hall. Their were no arrangement for Water or any kind of snacks in the Auditorium The only person was the ticket checker who collected our pass and advised us to seat inside as per your choice.
The title does not sound that Appealing and also gave us a second thought as whether we should go or miss it. I asked my Wife and she said we go for the movie. It was a long time as we have not gone for a long drive and a Dinner without our son.
Cast overview, first billed only:
Jim Carrey as Dick Harper and Tea Leoni Jane Harper
The Movie is a Remake of 1977 movie Fun with Dick and Jane staring George Segal and Jane Fonda. It revolves in and around a couple, a Kid, a maid and a Dog who live a Happy and a normal life with all things running smooth. Dick is employed with Globodyne after 15 years of his hard work the company one day gives him an opportunity he cannot refuse. They make him the V.P of the company. He advises his Wife to quit her job in a travel agency. The second day of his job he gets the surprise of his life as the company goes Bankrupt as was in the case of Enron.
Dick and Jane try all kinds of jobs but are not good to fit in any and go bankrupt and do not have money to meet his daily needs so they become part time Robbers. One fine day Dick gets an Idea to Get even with his boss and get the dues of the company for him and all the employees of the company.
If in Short if I were to tell in regards to this movie is that Jim Carey has not over acted and is worth watching it. The movie set on the Enron scandal leaving thousands of stockholders in financial ruin. The story line is Excellent and 90 min of fun movie that is worth watching if one really wants a good laugh.
