User Reviews

Very light on plot

This movie is very light on plot, very little character development, and some other reviewer said this had great T & A? It even failed there. I wouldn't say this is the worst movie ever because they are worse movies out there than this one. It's sad when Samantha's friends/business partners aren't as developed as "man at pool", "Thug #2" or "screaming girl" characters in other movies. This doesn't even make a good time killer. I wouldn't say avoid at all costs, but they are better movies to watch. Also, waaayyyy too much music. Finally, the T&A could have been much better, but that's the way it goes. This movie fails in all ways. Its like eating Chinese food, you'll be hungry for another movie in an hour.
