Reviews
BroadcastChic Excellent, a Must See
Beystiman It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.
Quiet Muffin This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.
Phillipa Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
