Reviews

Plantiana Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.
Matcollis This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.
Kodie Bird True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.
Lidia Draper Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.
