Audience Member classic, Justin Long is hilarious in the straight to video comedy! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Frances H Funny little satire with a good cast. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 10/11/12 Full Review Audience Member One of the blackest comedies I have ever seen. All three characters are living in a universe that is hard to believe. Hal just won't leave the bathroom and mom is the classic enabler. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Audience Member "YAWN" What does the above tell you about this film??? Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member The story about a teenage genius Hal (Justin Long) who locks himself in the bathroom for three months, in order to work out mathematical equations on his shower walls and secretly ogle his cheerleader neighbor, Lacy (Danica McKellar) without interference from his overbearing mother Nancy Nestor (Wendie Malick) who sees herself as the perfect wife and mother. A battle of wills ensues with Nancy determined to lure her son out for a valedictory speech and Hal equally determined to stay in the john. Psychologist Dr. Curle Weeks (Ed Begley Jr.) comes to Nancy's aid to develop a program that might get her obsessive-compulsive son out of the bathroom. Stephen Root stars as the beleaguered dad who just wants to get through each day while Malick is hilarious as Hal`s social-climbing and equally dysfunctional mother. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member Justin Long was remarkable in this movie, although this movie had other great actors. Steven Root's character reminded me of his character from the Office Space. This was a very interesting movie. I didn't expect it to end the way it did. It just wasn't realistic but I would definitely recommend this movie. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Read all reviews
