Cliché., 22 September 2009

Poor and rigid acting. Been there done that plot, with extremely predictable moments.

More than anything, amateurish direction. Scenes felt very stilted and flowed about as smoothly from one to the other as a square block kol-unk-ing down a mountainside.

Those leaving the 10 star comments, MUST be the crew/director themselves, because no one in their right mind would give this a worthwhile review.

Not the worst thing I've ever seen in my life, but not too far off either.

I apologize in advance for what I'm about to say. This movie was... dismal. HAHAHAHAHAHHA... okay I'm fine now.
