Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.
Too much of everything
Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
