The writing is not altogether that bad--the jokes definitely have their niche and will be entertaining to its intended audience.
Let's just say that, without looking at any of the credits, I could tell that it was one of those movies where the director had cast herself as the lead role. I was not convinced by Helen Lesniak's performance as a romantic lead. She does well with the sarcasm...and that's about it. The fact that she looked to be the same age as her on-screen mother was distracting, frankly.
And it sounds horrible but the whole time I was thinking, "How did she land a babe like Eric Shaffer?"
