i saw this movie because i just loooooove the guy from the menards commercials and i found out he was in this film. i expected it to be awful, and i wasn't at all disappointed. the dialogue is horrendous, the editing is inept, the music is laughable, the characters are flat, the plot is predictable and the twist at the end is totally expected. i loved every second of it!
