Saving Silverman

This limp comedy, about three friends whose fun gets disrupted when one of them falls for a demanding psychiatrist, lets a lame script dumb down a bright comedic cast. Steve Zahn and Jack Black play the goofballs while Jason Biggs and Amanda Peet portray
the couple, but their occasional flashes of inspired humor cannot save yet another movie about someone going to the bathroom on their front lawn.
