Man About Town is frustratingly manic in its tone... the unevenness wears too thin too quickly.

Binder's made some really fine movies and some curiously weak ones; my opinion is that this one falls firmly in the latter group.

has enough of a sense of humor to overcome the Affleck-induced malaise that you might otherwise be expecting
