    An engaging, often very funny fish-out-of-water story that provides Hugh Grant with his best part to date.

    An enjoyable minor-league lark. But another "Notting Hill?" Fuhgeddaboutit.

    Many of the gags rely on the incongruity of Grant's nervous, cultured character posing as an Italian-American stereotype, but they're subverted by his earnest relationship with his fiancee, whose affection hardly seems worth the trouble.

    An uninspired, recycled Mafia gags caper.
