Garage production that rips off Napoleon Dynamite. Napoleon had its fans and haters, but at least was a fresh approach at a worn genre. This cheap imitation just grinds out the same old stuff you've seen a thousand times, with some of the worst acting ever. The direction is far too inept to make the plot interesting, and the writing is an abysmal mess.
One guy mumbles slowly every time he's on screen. It's amusing for about five seconds, then becomes an irritating droning noise. One guy is a pathetic con artist who beats up other kids with inflatable toy bats. A bully, a couple who don't fit in, dumb adults, etc. etc. The characters are cardboard cutouts, and nothing is funny.
The whole Sasquatch idea is lost in a cesspool of endless talking about nothing, disjointed cultural nostalgia sight gags that don't work, and a misguided production. Try to imagine a film that just shows a dog chasing its own tail in extreme slow motion for an hour and change, and you have this. Giving it a 2 is generous.
