The Accidental Tourist is a whirlwind of emotions--sadness and laughter throughout. The film is worth seeing for the performances of Kathleen Turner and Geena Davis alone.

John Williams sounds like Mozart is leading band camp; it's good but in the wrong context. The female leads keep the film from falling apart, but even they are not strong enough to make the experience anything close to memorable.… Expand
