User Reviews

Easily one of the worst movies ever made

This is easily worst movie ever made. I mean, if you can call it such. We watched it about 1/3 in and eventually turned it off, once all the laughs were out. The acting was the most horrible part of the experience, I mean, this is probably what casting directors feel like. Good material for MST3K though.

OK, so, I don't want to be brutal, especially to an indie director working with a low budget, but for Pete's sake there are some basics of storytelling that even I understand - like scenes should not just pile up on top of each other akin grocery items but rather gently flow to form a cohesive meaning; dialogs need to feel real not plastic and first-date scenes should reveal some deep chemistry between the characters in a way distinctly different from 72 takes of awkwardly sipping the same (constantly full) glass of water.
