Less than satisfying and frustrating to think of how great this could have been.

Canada is a funny place, so why can't we make a comedy that's actually funny?

Looks like it was shot on weekends by a bunch of students, with a loopy, derivative story and poor performances.

Rated: F

Not bad, not bad. This was Stefaniuk before Suck which probably deserves a similar rating. Funny at times but a wee bit inconsistent. Keep trying my man.
