Yet another Canadian movie that tries hard but doesn't quite cut it in the end.

Crewson is a game, experienced actress but hasn't sufficient star charisma to lift Suddenly Naked out of the doldrums.

A film that proved to be alright as it went along to the end but I have to say it is the worst film that I know to have been filmed in Vancouver, BC, Canada.
