Stuck on You: Glenn Watson

Stuck On You

WHY WE CAN'T WAIT A gleefully tasteless buddy comedy from the Farrelly brothers (''Dumb and Dumber'') that includes Siamese-twin jokes? We're there, but just be grateful the brothers didn't go with their original casting choices: Jim Carrey and Woody Allen.

SOURCE MATERIAL One of the siblings' earliest screenplays, predating their 1994 ''Dumber'' breakthrough

PLOT POINTS When Walt (Greg Kinnear) is bitten by the acting bug, he drags conjoined twin Bob (Matt Damon) along to Hollywood, where they get a job on a sitcom starring Cher (one of several real-life stars playing themselves in this movie). But will success break up the act?

BURNING QUESTION ''Will & Grace'' guest spot aside, can Matt Damon be funny?

COME FOR The slapstick

STAY FOR The witty showbiz satire
