A successful dentist renews an old acquaintance with a college buddy who has had a breakdown.

Inside every comic actor is a mawkish dramatic diva struggling to get out. The sort of movie wild horses couldn't normally drag me to, concerning as it does the neuroses of affluent New Yorker's. Sandler's Unhappy Gilmore wanders through the flick like he has a bad cold and has overdone the NyQuil. Despite this, despite this I find myself gripped and wanting to see how it all resolves mostly thanks to Cheadle's sweet natured turn as the hapless buddy.
