An okay movie, with some sorry acting, 29 March 2002
Author: Money-3 from Salt Lake City, UT

I went with high expectations of this movie, and I have to say the movie was okay, but I was disappointed with the acting. I found the acting in this movie to be subpar. The star, Will Swenson, is the only decent actor in the whole movie. The lead female, Connie Young, was I the only one completely annoyed by her performance the entire time? She drove me crazy. And the other characters seemed to be just whoever the director could talk into being in his movie. I guess at this small of a budget, that's all you can get. The cameos were just annoying, and had no point. Except maybe Gordon Jump. At least putting an experienced actor in the mix seemed to give this movie a little bit of credibility.

You obviously have to be Mormon, or at least live in Utah to get the majority of the jokes, which isn't a bad thing, that's their prime audience I guess. But I just felt like I was watching a movie that was written like a stand up comedy act rather then a movie (no pun intended since he is a stand up comedian). Real writers don't write jokes, they write movies. And I felt like this was just one joke after another...at least they were decent jokes though.
