*** This comment may contain spoilers ***

I cannot believe this movie ever got made, let alone got into video distribution. I am tired of going to the video store and reading nothing short of b.s. and lies on the back of the covers. This is one of the most lame-brained, ultra-formulaic, New York Italian drone movies I have ever seen. I believe my girlfriend and I may have slightly chuckled once. I can't remember exactly where we chuckled....maybe it was on the road trip where the 3 stereotypical things happened to the dips traveling to PA. You know...1) flat tire, 2) the couple giving opposite directions to the lost mullets, 3)getting pulled over by the neo-nazi cops (for no apparent reason). Or, maybe we chuckled at the 3 references to the guy banging the sheep (that's right all you aspiring writers out there, great comedy gags happen in 3's). I also couldn't figure out why half of the dimwits living in PA had southern accents. Nice touch. The only thing amazing about this movie, is that I am sure the making of the movie actually mirrored the making of the movie within the movie.

Overall....the writing sucked, the acting was worse, and the scenes lingered on way too long (direction also sucked). Please take this out of circulation so that no one else inadvertently loses 105 minutes out of their lifetime. And for all of our sakes....please take "fahgedaboutit" out of all future NY Italian movies. It's old, it's worn, and I have heard mongoloids with more original dialogue.
