Much uglier than I ever imagined, with racism, sexism, homophobia, and jokes about napalm!  (I tuned out before the "romance" part.)  Taylor Hackford directed, over twenty years before Ray.

This is on a "Triple" pack of Richard Gere, but I already rejected Runaway Bride.

I liked this more than I expected, although the tropes do cross over into cliches at times.  The look is good, and I'm saying that as someone who is generally not a fan of computer animation.  The celebrity voices help*, most notably villainess Bancroft and Idle as her spooneristic minion.  Mark F. Adler and Jason Maurer co-directed, and co-wrote with others.

*I'm omitting Sally Kellerman, Kelly Ripa, and Burt Reynolds from the crowded tags.
