Made apparently by committee (you know you're in trouble when more than two writers are credited), not sure whether it's a caper movie, a horror-suspense, comedy or (even!) a sex- farce. Bad writing, scenery-chewing acting, absurd mcguffin; the only thing good about this disgrace is the main set, some kind of uber-luxurious hotel room in downtown Toronto. Worst of all, though, the direction, which seems utterly uninformed, unaware of where the drama in the 'script' might be, and tragically devoted to sappy, sometimes hilariously inappropriate background music.
A sure miss.
