The surprise behind Town and Country isn't that the director started filming without a finished script, but that he ever thought he had the start of one. -

A one-joke movie. What makes it misfire is that its one joke clashes with its one idea. -

As a spy film, The Sum of All Fears is flaccid, and as an expose of nuclear threats, there's not enough information. -
