If only the movie's writers (there were half a dozen) and directors (there were two - one bailed after two weeks) had created a movie one-fourth as funny as this sketch was, this latest in a long line of regrettable 'SNL' movies might not have been such a waste of time. Ironically, the weekend this film opened 'Saturday Night Live' offered up one of the funniest Butabi bits ever, featuring Cameron Diaz as a slinky babe actually looking for a pair of losers who throws Steve and Doug over for surprise guest stars Dan Aykroyd and Steve Martin, reprising their unskilled immigrant Casanovas, the Wild and Crazy Guys (to which the Butabis owe their very inception). For instance, an uncredited Chazz Palminteri plays a derriere-obsessed club owner who agrees to finance their idea for an inside-out club (since they spend so much time cooling their heels in line, they think it would be bitchin' to have that ambiance in the club). Most of the rest of the movie is spent in nightclubs, trying to stretch lean 'SNL' material from four minutes to 82 minutes and finding Steve and Doug dumb-lucking into giant plot devices. In a single scene - the brother's reconciliation after a near-wedding experience - Ferrell and Kattan ape both the boom box serenade from 'Say Anything.' and the 'You complete me' speech from 'Jerry Maguire.' The movie's few good jokes come from spoofs of other movies, especially Cameron Crowe movies. Throughout the course of the picture they are mistaken for millionaires by a pair of bimbos ('Score!'), get in a pouting match over disagreements about how they should run their non-existent club and try to dodge matchmaking attempts by their parents, (Lori Anderson, looking strangely gaunt, and Dan Hedaya, playing his trademark grumbling grump, ala 'Clueless').

They do the same thing in the film ad nauseam and spend another hour or so devising tiresome backstory for their one-dimensional characters, the Butabi brothers - Steve (Ferrell) and Doug (Kattan) - who daydream of opening their own club while working at their father's artificial flower store. In 'A Night at the Roxbury,' Will Ferrell and Chris Kattan attempt to flesh out their perpetually-bounced, Chess King-attired nightclub losers created in skits on 'SNL' in which they bop their heads incessantly to 'What Is Love' by Haddaway and play dance floor pinball with unwilling hotties and unsuspecting cocktail waitresses. Is it just me, or wasn't this bit tiresome after about the sixth time it was done on 'Saturday Night Live'? Turning 30 this past weekend, it will certainly continue to age like a fine wine.

Cameron Crowe has excelled himself in capturing the feelings and moments that you can so easily identify with to make them just right, and seem so natural.

John Mahoney portrays the over protective Father very well, and his understated struggle when he realises this is superbly done. Everything they feel and do seems so real. John Cusack and Ione Skye give such wonderful performances that are so believable there's not a second that you're thinking of them as actors. This film has survived 13 years with me, and it's not all down to my own memories. Especially the shaking with happiness moment (Judith). I laughed I was moved I cheered inside when things went well for the hero, and I even remembered things about my first love. Then, some 13 years later, after buying it on DVD with faded memories, I watched it again and it all came back. A wonderful film which made me laugh, cry and heavily identify with the first time I ever saw it.
