What a shocker

This film is an absolute disgrace. I only started watching it because i saw Anthony LaPaglia's name in the credits and thought it was Australian - instead, I got an awful, abrasive, long, boring, unfunny...(I could go on). LaPaglia should have stayed in Australia, although he was not to know how well he would do eight years later with Looking For Alibrandi (2000). Everyone in this film is miscast, the acting is terrible, the scripting is awful, the "jokes" aren't funny... Even thinking about the film depresses me! DON'T SEE IT.
