Peter Howell Toronto Star Less than satisfying and frustrating to think of how great this could have been. Rated: 2.5/4 Mar 11, 2005 Full Review Leah McLaren Globe and Mail A delightfully freakish comedy. Rated: 3/4 Mar 11, 2005 Full Review Dorothy Woodend The Tyee (British Columbia) Canada is a funny place, so why can't we make a comedy that's actually funny? Aug 24, 2017 Full Review Jason Gorber Film Scouts Looks like it was shot on weekends by a bunch of students, with a loopy, derivative story and poor performances. Rated: F Jun 21, 2007 Full Review Ken Eisner Georgia Straight Funny only in an I-can't-believe-they're-doing-that kind of way. Mar 13, 2005 Full Review Bruce Kirkland Jam! Movies This low-budget Canadian comedy rocks the house like few others. Rated: 3.5/5 Mar 11, 2005 Full Review Read all reviews
