While "Salmon Fishing" fritters away the comic momentum of its madcap opening chapters, it's like angling -- a pleasant diversion if you can look below the surface and muster the patience to appreciate it.

Hallstrom shores up his film with a terrific cast that can often make up for the parts that sag under the uneven weight of preciousness.
