Touchy movie for me, i am torn between two points

I am torn on this movie. You have to look at this movie from 2 point of view. The first point of view is the view of every one in the entire world, meaning your average person that is going to watch a movie.

From the every one point of view i described above this movie is a big stinky pile of horse crap, steaming up steam clouds of bad acting and poor filming. Most of these types of people never made it though the movie. Im not bashing this group, i am in this group HALF of the time.

Then the next group of people are the types of people that are in to these types of movies, little budget, independent films that the little guys make. You can tell them from a mile away by the picture on the box and the description on the back.

IF can look at this movie from the second groups point of view, this movie is really not that bad at all. If you compare this movie to 50 other independent movies of this type it stands out from the crowd in plot and acting.

Now looking at this movie from both point of views? my only big problem is the guy that hassles the main guy at work, he was so over the top stupid and really had a huge part in making this movie bad.

If your the actor that hassled the dish washer and your reading this for some reason, YOUR the main reason this movie was corny, and bad.
