User Reviews

This is a joke, right?

No, really. Someone tell us please. It HAS to be a joke.

It boggles the mind what can pass as cinema.

This film is worthy of every single review cliché statement imaginable: - Don't watch! - Skip! - Complete waste of time.

• I want my money back.

• Worst movie ever! ... and any more you can think of.

I have no more words. This film was so bad I was left speechless.
