Ratings and reviews

A Benjamin Franklin quote sums up the premise of this entire movie. "He who won't be counselled can't be helped." Amazing.

Weird dialogue among the characters that was either vulgar or pretentious. I wouldn't recommend this movie to my friends.

this had the potential to be great, but turned out to be a very boring waste of time.
