Just completely horrible. I've never seen a worse movie.

This has got to be one of the most poorly written, abominably acted, inanely directed movies I've ever had the misery to see. If for any reason someone suggests you check out a screening of this miserable waist of celluloid (er, video tape), move on as fast as you can. Don't waste a second on this tripe. You'll never even begin to understand how bad the script is. There's a point about an hour into the movie when you think, "Oh, he's about to land this thing. It's almost over. I can get out of here. Maybe I won't see him in the lobby." But then, the movie takes off again in a completely new direction, almost totally unrelated to the first hour. It's as if they got done with the script and they only had an hour's worth of pages and decided, "Dangit, we're gonna make this a feature even if it completely sucks." We don't care if the third act has nothing to do with the rest of the movie, we're making a FEATURE LENGTH FILM BY GOLLY!" Yuck. Run, don't walk, as fast as you can from any screening of this dismal thing. Trust me.

An Excellent First Effort

For a first time Film, a job well done. Director/Producer/Co-Star/Doorman Mark Jwayad is tireless and in some cases shameless, but willing to do what it takes. He's got Guts, and Guts is enough. Anyone who grew up Catholic will have a more unique understanding of how the Film displays the kind of guilt that The Church has to offer, but on a much more timid scale. And bravo to crazy old man Milo, cheers. The Film does a good of job as it can of Developing the main characters, but there are some parts that i would be embarrassed to watch with my parents in the room. Hey-OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! But you have to expect that these Days. The jaded Security Guard is awesome, the fact that the Creators ignored that fact that the extension on his Gun Barrel is clearly attached with Duct Tape and made no attempt to Flesh it into the actual Color of the Gun makes it that more hilarious. Anyone who sees this Film must realize that when one makes their first Movie, it wont be Polanski. the Resources, Time and Money aren't there, but if you realize the effort that must have gone into it, you will have to appreciate it.
