Can Julius make the money, make it big AND get the girl?

Press Quotes
Samuel L. Jackson, god bless him, throws his all into the masochistic role of a mailman terrorized by Julius' big, mean dog. Jackson appeared in Pulp Fiction the year this came out yet he gives his all to cartoonish canine slapstick... Hail Caesar would like to be [Anthony Michael] Hall's Billy Madison...
