A scriptwriter's passion project to showcase himself/herself as the next big thing is a noble quest laden with pressure and risk, but the rewards of such a venture can be game changing. It's clear the creator's approach to this production never gave it a fighting chance. It's so poor, on so many levels (the script, the excruciating rocky-esque montage, and those dodgy accents to name but a few lowlights). It's common knowledge you can neither polish or buff one up, yet despite best efforts made, the flecks of A-List showbiz glitter (in the form of Crowe and Winstone) failed to stick to this giant turd. As for us all being 'introduced' to Matt Hookings, by none other than Matt Hookings himself, this truly is a modern day tale of how one man's dream can turn into a bored & curious Amazon Prime subscriber's nightmare.
