Critic Reviews

  • Michael Dequina, TheMovieReport.com

    The film's high spirits are contagious and wholly impossible to resist.

  • Tom Block, culturevulture.net

  • Anthony L


    It really is a really shite film, why people rave about it so much is beyond me! Bad acting and an awful script!

  • Alexander W

  • Lady D
