For Richer Or Poorer (1997)


FOR RICHER OR POORER is a lame comic take on WITNESS, with Tim Al-
len and Kirstie Alley as rich folk who head for the hills when the 
IRS comes a-callin'.  The wealthy New Yorkers are also at odds in 
their marriage, which can only mean three things: (a.) upon arrival 
in Amish land, they'll be bickering about wanting a divorce (b.) 
after a day or two of hard work, they'll start acting nice to each 
other, and (c.) by the final reel, they'll have reconciled, but not 
before fingering their accountant (Wayne Knight, who else?) as the 
real cheater-cheater pumpkin eater.  Did it happen?  Well, I can't 
advise.  I left after an hour, bored, but not before having one 
good laugh, at Allen, standing on Wall Street behind the statue of 
a bull and uttering a certain eight-letter expletive.  Now *that's* 
funny.  (Rated "PG-13"/115 min.)

Grade: W/O
