A seriously dull film that thought it was good, 9 July 2006
1/10
Author: KaphJnec from United Kingdom

I kept watching the film hoping for something interesting to happen... it was filmed as though it thought it would be interesting, and then the scenes towards the end were presented as though they thought it was a great film and we would all be in love with the characters... my only regret about this film, is that I didn't stop it after the first 20 minutes, when it was painfully obvious that it was going to be a complete waste of time.

I laughed perhaps three or four times in the film, and it had a few reflective moments on the boredom of balancing home life with work and evil bosses... which perhaps kept me watching in hope.

But they could have made the film much better... it was just too boring for way too long, in the end I was hoping that they would all be killed in nasty ways and it would turn into a delayed horror movie.

And then when they finally try and do something with the story, it ends with them all sitting around congratulating themselves on their own utter blandness, which was when I realised I had been lulled into a trance by the total boredom, and in a desperate attempt to regain some self-respect I switched off and missed the last few minutes.

Anyway... save yourself now while you still can.
