...keep up. Meanwhile, Artie admits to a crush on Tina – “I want to be very clear. I still have the use of my penis,” he informs her – and scores a kiss. But when Tina confides her stutter is fake, Artie, who is always left out, feels betrayed that anyone would sabotage her own chances at fitting in, and he resentfully ends their date. Finally, Kurt (who is apparently trying to bring karate headbands back) feels slighted when Mr. Schue doesn’t give him a chance...
...heart, or so he claims, that he volunteers to inform on ADM’s price fixing agreements. As a spy, Mark Whitacre is nothing like Jason Bourne. Matt Damon is almost unrecognizable beneath his round face, thick glasses, toupee, and moustache.

...Lace. (He punctuates this theme with a performance- art piece by Hannah so bizarre it could empty movie houses quicker than a bomb threat.) Which leaves the top two stars to their own considerable resources of charm and mother wit. Redford looks terrific, and has honed his stutter-step diction into a cagey character trait. Winger, unflatteringly photographed, is still the most ingratiating of Oscar-worthy actresses. Neither deserves to be laden with this leaden souffle. Verdict on Legal Eagles: guilty of genre sabotage. Cast dismissed...
