Thornton plays this low-ball farce with deceptive, masterful ease. Appreciate it.
The movie's "Beverly Hillbillies" humor had me laughing moderately, and by the end I wasn't even looking around to make sure no one noticed.
Not good enough to overcome its status as damaged goods, which is almost a shame, since audiences will miss Billy Bob Thornton's best performance, and hairpiece, in years.
It's never a good sign when a movie's credits include: ''Tony Orlando as himself.'' But the crooner is the highlight of the dreadful Waking Up in Reno.
Its jokes aren't funny. Its sloppy direction comes courtesy of Jordan Brady, who made "The Third Wheel," another reportedly failed comedy gathering cobwebs at Miramax.
A hillbilly romantic comedy in which the hillbillies show up but the romance and comedy never do.
The one thing that can be said of Waking Up in Reno is that it's rigorously consistent. Every note rings false.
