I like jokes about toilets and defecation, and I also like some (not all) books of T.C. Boyle. I dont like Matthew Broderick that much. The problem of this movie is that it has no clear plot: Should it concentrate on the Lightbodys, on Wellville-Founder Kellogg or on the story of the hospital? So the scenes follow in a very unmotivated order; the story lacks any dramatic highs and lows. So we have a sligthly satiric, sometimes funny, but mostly boring movie.
