Review of The Baxter (2005) by Gregs. — 30 Sep 2005
I'm a huge Showalter fan, specifically Stella and Wet Hot American Summer. I'm not oppossed to him making a more serious type of film, it's just sad to watch him do it so poorly. The premise is interesting, but the execution is awkward, halted, and at times completely unbelieveable.
The only funny parts are when it's obvious the very talented Paul Rudd, David Wain, and Michael Ian Black are ad-libbing. Showalter should have handed this script to a more capable director, and then watched from the sidelines.
