Spelling can't act, Diamond can. Inane dialogue and poor direction.

The movie had promise, but not with Tori Spelling. She can't act at all and, in my opinion, only works as an Actress because of who her father is. Reed Diamond on the other hand can act. But even this talented actor would have a problem where he is directed poorly and had to work off of an untalented actress. He made the best out of some rather inane dialogue and I'm sure any scene where he came off better than Tori Spelling surely ended up on the cutting room floor. She was the star and wasn't going to be upstaged by anyone. Not even a talented Actor. I really only watched the movie because of Reed Diamond. When will Hollywood learn?
