Elaine Stritch

I thought Elaine Stritch gave a hilarious performance in her short role as the grieving widow to whom Robin Williams tries to sell a car at her husband's funeral. She's a classic scene-stealer and brightens this film considerably, just as she's done with so many other movies.

Unfortunately, I found the rest of this movie rather dreary, with too much focus on the hostage drama and domestic discord. I failed to see the humor. 4/10 stars from me.
