It was worth the 14.99+tax I gave to Blockburster Video..., 7 August 2006
9/10

This is a movie that I spent my money on and there was no regrets..It is a classic in it's own way.And the most interesting thing about it is that it is very original and unique,new upcoming star quality actors with real talent,especially the two leads Diamond and Mandela..they got me hooked till the end...I thought that the movie should have been longer,at least 90 minutes or more,it would have been a perfect 10.Definitely a real wonderful piece to see.We need more movies like this one,tired of special effects and people blowing up everywhere in films that is not real..This film is pure natural comedy with almost 90% elements of reality and truth.The writer and director should be encouraged to do more work like this one..Beautiful comedy from beginning to end. I give it a 9 out of 10.Great work!!!!!
