    Admittedly, Drowning Mona has some genuinely hilarious moments. But because 90-95% of it was wandering crap with no focus or point, I can't remember those moments. Or bear to go into any more detail about this movie. If you genuinely love this movie I feel sorry for you.

    Entertaining... but there's still the issue that Bobby did try to kill someone. It would've been better if they would have uncovered he missed the brake fluid or something. It's amazing that they were able to get enough running Yugos for the movie. Perhaps they had to use special...( read more) effects. (Note for idea for movie... The Italian Job but with Yugos...)

    It's pretty funny. Did you know that they actors added their own lines to make the movie better. O yeah and I like the line
    "Life gives you potatoes, make potato salad"
    "Well, I've been given a whole bag of %$#@, what am I suppose to make ourt of that?"
    Mindlessly, "Shit salad...( read more)?"
    THAT WAS FUNNY!!!!!
