      Jennifer: I sell direct... to high-school girls.

      Lucky: I know all of Jennifer's haunts. I'll pick up her trail and track her down and conk her. Strip her naked and drive her out to the country... cuff her, grill her, starve her, grill her, starve her until she signs she butchered Johnson and stole your song. But I won't kill her.

    Don't take it serious and you'll probably like it.
    Funny how people see the same things in such different ways. Although the movie is classified as action/drama I have to say I laughed so hard I almost fell off the chair. This movie would have been a greater success if it had been classified as comedy. The characters are so stereotype that the movie seems to make fun of the kind of genre it is actually supposed to represent. The problem is, that it takes itself serious, otherwise I think I would have liked it. I am not quite sure whether it is just a bad movie or if it is really bad enough to be interesting. In any case - I am still amused about it. (Besides, Anne Heche is hilarious as the bad girl).
