Easily one of the worst movies I've ever seen.


Aren't movies labeled as comedies supposed to be at least a LITTLE bit funny? There wasn't anything even remotely humorous about any scene in this entire crapfest.

And holy god could the yodeling music scene have been any more obnoxious and drawn out? It's like this movie was made with the sole intention of irritating the viewer. And if that wasn't enough, why was there so many unnecessary, drawn out screaming scenes? They would just sit there, screaming, 5 minutes at a time. I wanted to tear my ears off.

I wish I wasn't so stubborn that I insist on watching movies through to the end to try and find redeeming qualities. This is one where I really wish I had listened to my gut instinct and shut it off after 15 minutes never to watch again. Uuuuugh.

I think this is the first Nic Cage movie that I can say was legitimately terrible but not because of him!

You’re wrong it’s great.

Loved it before I was a parent. Love it even more now I am a parent.

Very good film. Cage's best film; everything else was downhill for him.

Its one of better movies Cage has been in. Others that comes to my mind are Wild at Heart, Matchstick Men, 8MM... there aren't too many.
