Funny stuff
20 June 2000
Peter Farrelly's Outside Providence is a funny pic, but not as funny as the past (and future) Farrelly brothers projects. I think the reason is because they left the directing up to Michael Corrente. Not that that's completely bad, it just gives a different look to the picture that might've been given by the brothers. Story is based on Peter's novel (probably based on real life) about a kid who has to go to a preporatory school after crashing into a parked cop car. Alec Baldwin plays it good (yet with a complex Providence accent) as the kid's father and some other things are funny, but they can't match up to the funny pics that come around every year. B+
