“Wild Wild West” – The story – Will Smith and Kevin Kline track down evil, power-hungry Kenneth Branaugh – is simplistic and the characters are dull. This would be forgivable if “Wild Wild West” was funny, but the laughs are few and far between. The giant mechanical spider and other gadgets are well done, but wasted on such a boring movie. D
