Like most everyone said, this is a large takeoff from Rob's previous films, and I was surprised, and impressed that he was able to play it off. He showed that he could act, and I think that if he could get a few more roles where he was not just a clown, then people might look at him differently. Case in point, remember Tom Hanks in Big, Splash, and Bosum Buddies? He is now only doing serious roles. I think Rob shows in this movie that he can act, and I would like to see him act in other movies. At least he took a gamble and tried something new. I think that the story was a bit far fetched in regards to one man saving a bird to make snow appear on a mountain, but I think that they did swing it around to make it work. This movie shows how a man can push down life to a dark hole, but can find redemption by facing fears and growing from them. I think that most people will not get the story unless they are open to something that will enlighten them. I think the only flaws to the movie is that it is billed as a comedy, when it is really a drama with some funny moments, and the camera flickering during the dream sequence. If you are open to some great acting, a touching story, and learning something, then I would recommend this movie.
