User Reviews

Lazy laidback, with a twist

My imagination got tickled by the description of this movie on the box as I picked it up at the local videostore. But, once I started watching it, this ticklish feeling soon turned into boredom.

This movie is situated in Florida, where a young wanderer makes his way into the town of Ochopee. He finds a job as a car mechanic and finds a place to stay. He meets a girl,named Sarah, and he falls in love with her. Then, after a night of passion, he finds out she is not real, but she is a girl that has been murdered 30 years ago.

Because of his love for Sarah he is determined to find out who killed her and why.

The idea is pretty intriguing, and the cast plays well. But, this movie lacks one thing: speed. Maybe it's typical southern style, but it just goes on and on. The good thing about it is the surprising ending.
