Its also Alicia Silverstones first turn as a producer, though why she chose this oddball film that is too smart for its own good, and thats not sure of its intentions remains a mystery.
Silverstone certainly looks great, but she plays such an undefined character, than one never really gets into her skin.

Believe it or not, the screenplay is written in such a way as to make this seem plausible.
the plot seemed stupid

Not that being derivative is the film's greatest flaw.....a bungled kidnapping comedy like "Ruthless People," or an odd-couple-bonding-on-the-road picture like "Nothing to Lose"--perhaps....Where "Excess Baggage" goes from stale to lifeless is in treating its entirely predictable plot turns and screwball elements.... ...
