The movie is a desperate miscalculation. It gives poor Dana Carvey nothing to do that is really funny, and then expects us to laugh because he acts so goofy all the time.
Full reviewEmmy-winner Dana Carvey (Wayne's World) leads this 2002 spy comedy as a waiter who must use his secret, supernatural power of disguise to save his father.
A sweet-natured Italian waiter named Pistachio Disguisey (Carvey) at his father Fabbrizio's restaurant happens to be a member of a family with supernatural skills of disguise. But moments later the patriarch of the Disguisey family is kidnapped Fabbrizio's former arch-enemy, Devlin Bowman (Brent Spiner), a criminal mastermind in an attempt to steal the world's most precious treasures from around the world. And it's up to Pistachio to track down Bowman and save his family before Bowman kills them.
