User Reviews

i don't know

i loved everything about this movie. i picked it up because of AM Hall and loved the light hearted wackiness and play on words and I LOVED THE SOUNDTRACK. as a matter of fact, i have been looking to see if the soundtrack is available anywhere. i still can't find it. so i just keep watching the movie over and over. my 12 year old daughter has seen it a few time and likes it also, she tried to get her friends to watch it, but they didn't get it. it was a good lighthearted comedy, with interesting characters.anyway, we are happy to have our own DVD and hope to get the soundtrack someday! i can't think of anything else to say. if you like AM Hall this movie will entertain you.
