Shaq is an actor in movie with no plot - nothing more to add

OMG, this is so sad, its not even funny; that is why there is a saying that "to each is own" I guess he know joins the list of other talented actor-athletes like Dennis Rodman, Hulk Hogan and Randy Savage - man, I am not even going to attack the movie, because its unfair to tackle crippled opponents

worst waste of time and space in universe since Poly Shore
