É frustrante constatar que as ótimas atuações (especialmente de Kirby e Rees) e o interessante roteiro são desperdiçados por uma conclusão maniqueísta e improvável.

Stumbles through unlikable characters written by the hand of someone who needed to take a few more risks himself.

I'll bet you can't figure out how this is going to end... it has moments of inspired genius but it's inconsistent.

Funny, well written... I strongly advise any Canadian to seek out this film NOW, so that it avoids the fate of so many great Canadian films, the one week theatrical window.
