      Audience Member Not as good as I hoped it would be, but still worth a watch. There really was a funny movie the humor is very dark. But the characters are quirky and priceless. It reminded me a little of Ellie Parker. It was done in the same vein. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Christopher Null Filmcritic.com definitely lives up to its "cruel" moniker... but is it "necessary?" Rated: 4/5 May 18, 2009 Full Review Steve Rhodes Internet Reviews Too often, however, I kept thinking of the missed opportunities and wished that the writer would have taken more risk with the characters. Rated: 2.5/4 Mar 21, 2005 Full Review Read all reviews
