It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.
The movie runs out of plot and jokes well before the end of a two-hour running time, long for a light comedy.
Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
