This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.
Watch something else. There are very few redeeming qualities to this film.
It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.
There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
