When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.
A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."
The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.
One of the best "unknown" comedy films every made. Try to rent it, you will not be disappointed. A brilliant comedy script, well directed and acted. Lots of fun. The European actors and actresses are very talented and skilled. Enough T&A without being overdone. Frank Brana is hilarious as "Jack" (always with a cigar in his mouth). Victoria Vera is beautiful as Helene, and Frankie Mann is a perfect "Freddie". Great fun for all.
