3/10
A thin predictable plot with little entertainment.
30 August 2006
This film for me is without doubt one of the ten most boring I have watched in the last 20 years. I guess its main weakness is the classic stereotyping of all the characters. There are no scenes that come to my memory that are in any way original, this starts in the 'hero's' kitchen and continues predictably through the film. The plot is thin enough to read a book through, and, given the lack of special effects, preposterous in extremis. The major amusement for me is the portrayal of the 'baddies' who fall somewhere between Reservoir Dogs and the Keystone Cops - but without the violence or the humour. I reckon if Mr. Okin has trouble sleeping he should try watching this. I didn't make it to the end ....but I bet I know how it finished.
