Loosely, the story concerns a drive-through employee at a fast food restaurant (Barrymore). She is ordered to be murdered by the son of the dead man with whom she'd been having an affair. Not so fast, however, for the son, Dorian (Wilson), begins to fall for her. From there, events spiral even further into the land of black comedy. [More]

A dark comedy that's artificially dark and is never very funny.

There's a good movie somewhere in here trying to escape... the audience can relate to that desire.

Drew comes through for us. Her easy charm and winning smile put us back on track, giving us something familiar and wonderful to cling to.
