Customer Reviews

small town tragedy
This movie was worth the weekend rental rate by far. It made me wonder what would have become of me if I still lived in a small town. The perception of few options that plauge small town America is demonstated effectively. I remeber the police from my home town as power tripping, white trash-bullies. The cops in this movie were alot nicer, but I still enjoyed watching them be made fools of. The only reason I rented this movie is because of Brooke Langton,(The sexiest brunette alive) and was only disapointed by how short her role was. I tacked on half a star just because she was in the cast, that still makes one star better than average overall.

A COMEDY/DRAMA MASTERPIECE!!!!!
Yet another masterpiece from John Hughes. I have always had a lot of respect for John Hughes and there are a number of films that I enjoyed. This film I have seen many times and I like it more every time I see it. It is pretty twisted and hard to predict, however it has a powerful story behind it. A story about mistakes and getting a second chance at making a new beginning!! If you haven't seen it, please do!! Allessandro Nivola is a great actor and he was wonderful in this film!!!
I highly recommend it!!!

Funny and Clever
I thought that this movie had a good plot idea and was acted pretty well by the actors. There were funny parts and serious parts. Good for ages 13 and up, it kept me guessing, laughing, and interested. Some parts were a little unbelievable ( a cop can't be THAT stupid, can he?) but I liked it very much. Worth checking out.
