Just so-so, 1 July 1999
5/10
Author: Tito-8 from North Bay, Ontario

There was nothing particularly wrong with this movie, but the problem is, there is nothing especially good about it, either. It moves along at a good pace, it does a good job of focusing on a few flawed, but reasonably likable characters, and the story has a feel-good ending. Unfortunately, I was never really able to get into this movie. One of the bigger problems is the entirely predictable ending, and so I spent much of the film just waiting for the inevitable reconciliations and the bright futures for all of the main characters. So like I said, it isn't a bad film, but that doesn't mean that it's good.
