I was quite surprised when I saw the mark given by the IMDb users to this film. Indeed, even though it's not the best movie of the century, I found it quite entertaining and "fresh".

I loved the way it is shot, there is a real work on the layouts that makes Joe's apartment look dirty and moving at the same time. Besides, the visual effects are well done for a film that dates back to 1996. They are not THAT impressive but they are very efficient to create the funny atmosphere. I could not describe the way I laughed rolling on the floor when I saw those roaches watching an "insect porn movie", it cracked me up.

This movie is worth seeing for sure and does not deserve such a mark. Everyone who's curious should watch it to make his/her own opinion and should not pay attention to the five miserable stars given to the film.

I cannot believe I spent money to watch such a crap. There is no word to describe this disgusting and pointless piece of...ER...well, as you can see, I am not able to find any word for this... Plot ? No plot ! Any secret conceptual meaning ? You wish ! The whole film is made this way : a song, then ten minutes of real porn, then some kind of fake moving moment starring a man talking about Antartic, then a song, then sex, and so on...

Song-Sex-Song-Sex-Song-..... (sorry, I almost fell asleep)-Song-.......(fell asleep for real this time)-Ending title! Hurray, I can go back home with my girlfriend with the feeling that we wasted time and the certitude that we are a romantic clever couple compared to the one we saw in that film, a bunch of post - Woodstock animals under drugs...

Yes, that's it, the most annoying aspect of this "should I call this a" film is the fact that you see flesh during 90 minutes. I am not talking about some kind of romantic moments shot the moving way, no no, I am talking about penetration, ejaculation, oral sex, bondage, closeups and disgusting stuff... A porn movie is even more beautiful than this... This was so crappy and boring, it makes me shiver with laughter...

AVOID THIS CRAP AT ALL COST ! POINTLESS, DISGUSTING, REAL CRAP ! SPEND YOUR MONEY A BETTER WAY, GIVE IT TO POOR PEOPLE INSTEAD, THOSE ONES BEGGING IN FRONT OF THE CINEMA ! If I could have given a 0 out of 10, I would have done it ! This film should be forbidden for people aged below..ER...well...I don't even know if 18 is enough...

I was rather sceptical before watching this film. I had seen so many crappy lovely plots of this kind in the past.

But I must admit this one positively surprised me. This film conveys great valors which people nearly forgot nowadays.

Sidney Poitier is really moving in this film. The kind of grandfather, brother, husband, whatever, that everyone would like to have. His kindness and inner sorrows make him someone really intelligent and touching. Mary-Louise Parker plays also very well. Through her behaviour and her thoughts, the viewer starts to understand why Noah Dearborn is such a wonderful person and what life should be made of.

The only thing I found quite disappointing about this film is the fact that they don't share any kiss on the mouth, which I've been waiting for till the end... :-)

But still, it remains a nice and well shot film. Worth seeing for sure !

If you're a real cinema expert, looking for a great scenario and nice shooting techniques, then you can avoid watching this film, it will make you mad for sure !

But if you like 2nd degree humor, if you love stupid fights, sounds, sets and so on, then this film is definitely worth the try !

I really enjoy such stupid films because it's so crappy that you can't stop laughing during 90 minutes ! I even wonder how could such films be released in the 80's....The first time I watched it, I couldn't even say any single word, I was amazed and astonished by this incredible movie, I couldn't believe they made that for real !

Make your choice !
