4/10
disappointing movie from a promising cast
28 April 2002
when you hear the names woody allen, sharon stone and kiefer sutherland, you expect a half-way decent movie. but the title picking up the pieces is probably a reference to the way the script was written. the movie meanders on and is neither funny or thought provoking. except for the quirky humor and the satirical depiction of how a "miracle" could be exploited, there really is nothing very exciting about this movie. woody allen is ok as a neurotic butcher whose wife constantly cheats on him, sharon stone is adequate in a minor role. the rest of the cast is incoseqential and piffling.

sadly, this movie could possibly have been made into a smart little satire, but the poor production values and the jerky narration makes it quite a boring movie.

a boring 4!
