A politically correct, vastly sentimental and ultimately insincere saga of the friendship between a kind homeless man, played by Joe Pesci, and a guilt-ridden Harvard student, played byBrendan Frazer.

One of the few films I've ever walked out on. Pesci and Fraser serve up unsympathetic and grating characters.

A shaggy dog drama about the education of one upwardly bound college student.

This movie is predictable from scene one, though that wouldn't be a problem if it had a good script, good performances and solid direction. But it doesn't.

Obviously inspired by the success of Scent of a Woman, this one could have been called Scent of a Bum.

Well meaning drama but oversimplifies a lot and plays the death card too easily.

Do you amuse me, Joe Pesci? No, you do not.
