This movie is pretty much a story unto itself. It's a nice all fuzzy feeling movie about a guy fighting the illogical system. Silliness ensues. The story itself goes overboard a bit, but Tom Hanks really shines through in his performance. If you can treat it as a story, and distance yourself from the unreality of it all, it's a great movie. Otherwise, pass on it, as you'll be throwing popcorn at the screen by the time Hank's character makes a fountain in his spare time.
