Reviews
I only gave this film 2 stars for the talent that was in the film. Mind you the film wasted it dramatically, and I know that the cast was much more capable. The director didn't do his job as he should, or basically the direction was trying much too hard for laughs. It was unevenly paced and it almost ranks with another horrible film, that I won't mention, from mid-1980's. All in all, the director needs to go back and learn the basics of film making and I hate to say it, but the cast was wasted on this project. The director should stick to writing and producing and stop the nonsense of this kind of film.
