Say It Isn't So

Say It Isn't So

Say It Isn't So is touted as being from the Farelly brothers, who wrote and directed the movies Dumb and Dumber, Kingpin, and There's Something About Mary. And though they didn't write or direct this movie, it certainly has the same elements: charming lead actors (in this case, Heather Graham from Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me and Chris Klein from Election and American Pie) put through all sorts of comic grotesqueries, ranging from having an ear cut off to getting a hand stuck up a cow's rectum. Orphaned dogcatcher Gilly (Klein) and incompetent hairdresser Jo (Graham) fall in love, only to discover that Gilly's long-lost mother is Jo's own white trash momma (played with gusto by Sally Field). Unfortunately, they'd already slept together, so Jo flees in shame to go back to her ex-boyfriend in Beaver, Oregon. But when Jo's real brother shows up, Gilly sets out to win Jo back--only her mom wants her to marry the ex and tells the Beaver police that Gilly is a sexual predator. Say It Isn't So doesn't have the crude wit of There's Something About Mary, but there are several laugh-out-loud moments, and both Graham and Klein are sweet and engaging. Orlando Jones has a zestful turn as a legless seaplane pilot. --Bret Fetzer

Oh me and my wife had a great sex life, we use to have sex once a week. but then she died... then it was 3 or 4 times a week.

Pancakes. Pancakes. Pancakes.

I'm surprised she didn't give up the sausage and become a vagina-tarian.

Mr. Campisi:
Hey, are you the pancake guy?

Dig McCaffrey:
Listen. I would've sprung you sooner, but after I ate all that weed, it took me two days just to pass the stems.

Gilbert Noble:
Jo, listen. I got great news. I, uh - I found Leon. I found Leon, and I got him dead to rights.

That's great, Gilly. Now, why don't you just pull your arm out of Leon's butt, and we'll take a drive to the hospital.

Would you like the standard bikini wax?

Oh, no. I'm going to Hawaii with my husband. Better landscape the whole yard.

Jack Mitchelson got millions from his daddy. He's what we call a multi-millionaire. And in my experience, women like dead presidents more than broke boyfriends. No romance without finance, daddy.

Jimmy Mitchelson:
He wants to marry his sister.

Freddy:
He better not come back.

Jimmy Mitchelson:
Yeah, that's right, or we'll tie you to a tree, f*** you in the ass while we jerk you off. Show you what we really do to perverts around here.

Dig McCaffrey:
Well, ship my ass to big Red China. They want the white boy.

Streak:
You got any naked pictures of your sister?

Gilbert Noble:
Of course not.

Streak:
Wanna buy some?

Valdine:
Old R2D2 couldn't keep it in his pants back then. And now he can't even wipe his own ass.

Valdine:
Sweet Lord. You ponied your sister.

Larry Falwell:
You know what it feels like when newspapers call you the boss of a sister f***er? The whole damn town thinks I'm runnin' a "sisterf***eria."

Dig McCaffrey:
Now, be a friend and fetch my getaway sticks, daddy.

Gilbert Noble:
Your what?

Dig McCaffrey:
My legs, captain. My legs.

Gilbert Noble:
Oh, sh*t.

Dig McCaffrey:
Less feces, more fetchin'. Get over here and get it, boy.
