With director Frank Oz re-teaming with Steve Martin, this should had been funnier but at best is watchable and dull. Worse we rarely see Martin doing anything funny.
Martin plays Newton Davis, an architect who has built his own dream house which he hoped to share with childhood sweetheart Becky (Dana Delany.) Unfortunately Becky has turned down his proposal for marriage leaving Newton to mope about.
After sharing his troubles after a party in New York to a Hungarian waitress called Gwen (Goldie Hawn) that leads to a one night stand. Newton finds that Gwen has crashed into his life, entered his small hometown, into his dream house spinning a tissue of lies including telling people that they are married which Newton goes along with hoping he can win back Becky.
The plot is rather preposterous and far fetched. It is hard to take Newton's friends and family being taken in by his and Gwen's sudden relationship.
What is more Steve Martin is rather too old to be playing a single man presumably in his 40s trying to woo his childhood sweetheart to marry him. You mean after all these years he and Becky never even lived together?
