User Reviews

Nothing you haven't seen before. But this time boring.

Quite a boring tale about two con-artists fooling people to believe that they can contact the dead. When a local mobster dies, he actually does use them as a medium, and the circus rolls on.

Interesting pitch, but lame movie with standard dialogue, standard script and totally awful direction. Most of the scenes consists of people opening doors and walking through them, shaking hands, small talks and things that usually don't have any place in a film at all.

Truely a waste of time. Not even for those rainy sundays when you don't have anything else to watch.

Skip this one.
