Um, where do I begin?
This film is simply awful. It started off not too badly, with a hokey-but-fun opening sequence, but just dived off a cliff from that point onwards. I couldn't believe what I was watching. There were so many clichés in both the story and dialogue, and they were handled with such a clumsiness and heavy handedness. Like the antagonism between the black band member and the farmer - we've seen it all a million times before, and we've seen it better done than that, too.
It also has some of the worst acting I've ever had the misfortune of seeing. And what's with the crazy extreme wideangle closeups? They look terrible. Oh, and how about cutting to both actors during a dialogue scene, not just one of them... And how about using the music a little more sparingly, instead of every scene in the whole goddamn picture.
Avoid at *all* costs. Please.
