Just Crazy Enough

This film begins with two newborn twins being dropped off at the doorsteps of a large house with one of the babies being accepted while the other is rejected and apparently sent to an orphanage. The two young boys grow up with the first one named "Fred" (Chris Kattan) receiving an excellent education and becoming a psychiatrist. The other one named "Ted" (also played by Chris Kattan) has no such luck and eventually becomes a mental patient at a local mental institution. Things get reversed, however, when Fred goes to that specific facility and is mistaken for Ted who not only assumes his identity and but also slides into Fred's family as well. Now rather than reveal any more, I will just say that this could have been a good movie but the comedy sadly lacking. For starters, I didn't especially care for the main character who just wasn't that funny. Likewise, even though the relationship with his wife was already strained, there wasn't any chemistry between Fred/Ted and his wife "Lorna" (Susana Gibb) at any point. Likewise, I didn't especially care for the rather cardboard performance of Brooke Anna Leedy (as the young patient named "Dolores") either. For what its worth, though, I thought Eleanor T. Threatt (as "Nurse Nancy") put on a reasonable solid performance--but it wasn't nearly enough for me to rate this film any higher than I have.
