So bad that it's funny! Silly ending...

It is a miserable movie. Actually, it's so awful, that it is amusing. The end is downright silly. Goofy bad guys. It doesn't seem to be the actors fault though, rather a bad script. This movie can also be used as a introductory guide to how NOT to use product placement. Enjoy.
