Truly Dreadful Film

Pretty Good

One of my all time favorites.

best movie i've ever seen.

Dylan Ramsey (David Spade) gets dumped by stripper girlfriend Ginger (Ever Carradine). He owns a restaurant in desperate need of a loan. Wally (Artie Lange) is his really loud waiter. He falls for cellist neighbor Lila Dubois (Sophie Marceau). He gets caught naked after losing strip poker to the old ladies. Lila's cheating ex Rene chases her from across the ocean. Dylan decides to kidnap her dog Jack and spend time with her looking for the dog. Then the dog swallows his best friend's diamond ring.David Spade is doing his sarcastic douche character. Without his partner Chris Farley, it doesn't really work especially as a romantic leading man. It's horrible to watch Sophie Marceau being distressed and knowing that Spade is the cause. I rather the lovely Sophie stay single. Even Artie Lange would be better.

This movie is not very good. Even though, David Spade has a few funny moments and Sophie Marceau is ridiculously good looking. The chemistry between the two doesn't seem work on screen. I would save your money and see something else.

"Lost and Found" is a tour de force by David Spade which translates into a short tour with very little force unless you're a Spade lover. The film attempts to capitalize on Spade's sarcastic style of humor but wears it out quickly and apparently has little else to offer. It's unable to make the Kodak moments work as the Spade/Marceau duo is too implausible even for an outrageous comedy. This one dimensional, paper thin, and very forgettable flick is for Spade fans only.

David Spade is a very funny man, but his brand of comedy gets real old real quick. He admittedly relies largely on his weaknesses to be funny. You know, the sarcasm, the blow-dried hair, the all-around geekiness. Unfortunately, it seems that he never really tried to develop his acting skills. I have laughed myself to tears because of David Spade in his two best movies, Black Sheep and Tommy Boy (in both of which he played virtually that exact same character), but Lost & Found just wasn't amusing to me. Too much reliance on fourth grade humor and not enough of anything new for anything really good to be said of the film. And what was Sophie Marceau thinking?! She went from playing a significant (although relatively small) role in the spectacular 1995 epic Braveheart to this garbage? She must have been pretty desperate. Sure, she looked good in the movie, but the film itself is totally inconsequential and immediately forgettable. David Spade revealed in interviews just before the theatrical release of Lost & Found that he was worried about how the public would react to an actor with his iconography actually getting the girl, and frankly, I think he should have thought about that a long time ago. Watching David Spade kiss someone as stunningly beautiful as Sophie Marceau is like watching a junior high school kid make out with a 30 year old woman. Disturbing, to say the least. The entire film was a jumbled mess of goofy and pointless jokes and bonehead antics, mainly on the part of Spade, as he tries to keep his idiot dog-napping scheme a secret. The gay jokes, the making fun of the foreign guy (whether he deserved it or not), the fact that Spade spends any amount of on-screen time at all running around naked all come together to form a boring comedy that should be blissfully ignored by everyone. Just look at the cover of the movie. David Spade is naked and covering himself with a small dog. This is not something that you want to purposely subject yourself to.
