Need a great date DVD? Or a movie to watch with your grandmother without having to have any of those uncomfortable “sex scene ” moments? Dummy stars Jewish posterboy Adrien Brody as an aspiring ventriloquist with a meshugga family that makes yours look like the The Waltons. His best friend is a cute, bipolar, Yiddish-warbling rocker chick, played with dazzling alacrity and authenticity by former supermodel Milla Jovovich (she’s come a long way from that whole Joan of Arc disaster. Stick with the Jewish movies, babe.)
With each scene, it only gets weirder, funnier and better. Romantic comedies are usually so lame, and we’re delighted to find this one shines.
