User Reviews

Good Plot, $10 budget

The film has the potential to be quite good. It has an interesting story line which unfold throught the movie.

When she visits London and then Ireland, you can't help thinking that the movie would be must better if the crew had spent a little bit of money on plane tickets and done some filming there! The 4 or 5 cars which appear in the background seem to follow her to ireland, which looks suspiciously like the north american coast.

But on the whole, it's a fairly average movie to pass the time. Little bit more budget? then 8 out of 10. Otherwise, about 5.
