Question about Ben Affleck's role


I recently rented a dvd copy of Daddy & Them. Quite frankly, I started watching and immediately got bored with it. I fast forwarded to the parts with Ben, and was able to enjoy them and understand the context they were in. Unless I missed a scene, I think Ben was only in two: (1) when the family first meets with the lawyers and (2) the barbaque. Can anyone tell me if fastforwarded through another scene he's in? Also, as far as I could tell, Ben only appeared in one of the dvd's featurettes (the "making of" feature). Is he in any others that I'm missing out on? I'd appreciate if anyone could shed a little light on this subject for me.

Nope, i think you hit them both.
I agree, dumb movie.

He and Jamie Lee Curtis are hilarious in this movie, even for the short time they are on the screen!

Hilarious? Really????

Yes, Hilarious, really!

Yes, really.

It's a classic of two people who no longer get on desperately trying to hold it together bin front of strangers. And ultimately failing.

Sad, but very funny.
