It's not Alicia Silverstone's best movie, that's for sure. But its entertaining, funny, and lighthearted fun. I really loved Alicia Silverstone in this, she's rebellious, and a really loveable character. Benicio Del Toro is also very good here. The plot is nothing special, but it delivers when it has too. I really liked the ending too, very romantic. Christoper Walken is the standout here, he's very good, and cool to watch. I'd recommend it for anyone who likes comedies.

Its an entertaining ride. Benicio Del Toro is really really good in this, though he doesn't have that much depth to work with. Silverstones character is fun and attitude. Not a bad flick.

Re: Excess Baggage
I used to be a HUGE Alicia Silverstone fan after Clueless. Like obsessed . I remember finding this really disappointing, but when I revisited it a few years later I liked it a lot more. Not sure what I'd rate it as it's been a long time since I've seen it, but it's a solid, entertaining flick. I'd give it something like a B/B-.

Re: Excess Baggage
This movie? No good, at all.
Why Alicia Silverstone chose this as her follow-up vehicle to Clueless still boggles my mind.
