Stealing Harvard

An easygoing comedy that would have benefited from some more work. To help pay for his niece’s college tuition, an uncle (Jason Lee) and his clueless friend (Tom Green) attempt some petty thefts. Lee makes for an affable hero and Green’s bizarre antics produce a few laughs, but the downtime between gags is long and frequent. In short, a decent first draft.
