1.0 out of 5 stars Hilarious acting, December 17, 2008

By	Gary Fong "-horrible movie fan" (New York, NY) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Ever since I saw Tonya Harding's acting debut, I have been fascinated with bad acting. I am always on the search for bad films because they're hilarious. The star of this film is a riot! I forgot his name, but in the beginning scene - he gets some bad news and he talks over the lines of the other, more experienced actor. I remember holding my own breath in that scene because he was so stiff I got stiff!

I don't know who did the editing, but the conversations are timed so weird. It's like, seriously - you have to buy this DVD because it is so amateurish... it's so bad, i mean SO bad that I have been watching scenes over and over and laughing so hard. It's kind of like when you accidentally rub your finger on something smelly, and you have to smell it twice, just to like - check to see if the odor is for real?

That's this movie. I'm not mad at all that I bought it. I'm glad I bought it. It's one of the worst movies I've ever seen in my life!

1.0 out of 5 stars Awkward , August 27, 2006

By	Zesty Droog (North Carolina) - See all my reviews

I felt like I was watching a high school film project. The acting is extremely over the top and at times, laughable. Many of the actors stumbled over their lines. I couldn't believe it when the credits rolled that the person who was the worst actor in this film was the director of the film! Ouch! The soundtrack was generic and painful as well. The placement of music into some of the scenes was intrusive and inappropriate. It was also impossible to connect to any of the characters because they simply weren't likeable or they just weren't fully developed. I understand that this is a low budget film, but for goodness sakes it is not worth 17 dollars. Truthfully, the only reason I purchased it was that my girlfriend's cousin is in it and we wanted to see how she did. She was just as awkward as the rest of the cast. Please rent this first before you buy it. Sorry to be cruel to all involved in this movie, but potential viewers have to know its flaws.

5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding, June 13, 2006

By	Patrick Thebeau "PJ" (Dallas, TX USA) - See all my reviews

For the budget this guy had and the quality of the movie that he put out, you have to give it up to Michael Madison. Great job Mike(especially with the beard) and a great film!
