While there may be something about Mary, there's something truly endearing about this film. It's definitely grown on me, and I like it more with each viewing. While it doesn't necessarily work as a whole (the plot is sketchy at best, but this is comicbookland), it's imaginative, fun and incredibly light-hearted. Worth watching if for no other reason than the superb character creations-- how can you afford to miss Geoffrey Rush as Casanova Frankenstein? Some might call it a dumb movie for smart people. Exceptionally snappy dialogue, and if you watch it more than once, you'll discover the more subtle jokes.
In order to gauge my taste: I love "Something About Mary," hated "Flirting With Disaster" and, in general, prefer "The Ben Stiller Show" (90s Fox TV series) to anything he's done so far in film.
