Well, John Goodman turns The Babe into a clown, and one that isn't very well balanced. It's almost like he was playing two different characters, one with actual depth and one with the depth of a tea spoon and would switch back and forth without the two intersecting to form a complete whole.

And that is where the film really failed. You never get the sense that you are watching the same protagonist from one scene to the next.

It really could… read the rest.
