Reviews
Memorable, crazy movie
This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.
It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
