Movie Info

Young Sean McNutt is a love-lorn waiter whose life is spinning out of control. What's a luckless guy to do to reclaim his dignity?

Poorly directed, depressingly dull comedy with hardly any laugh-out-loud moments - a waste of a talented cast.

A completely juvenile, ridiculous movie filled with frat boy humor that just happens to be very funny.
