Uneven Film

I really like this film but I feel it is quite uneven. The prank and the first day following it are great but after that the film falls kind of flat. Their are some great moments from Courtney along the way but no more attention grabbing scenes. Anyone agree?

Is this turnout weak or what? I had at least 70 more people at my funeral.

I agree. This film started out well enough,but lacked direction & substance afterward.
The only other scene I liked was when Julie was sitting near the water, and began thinking of Liz. That scene was beautifully filmed too.

"Didn't he discover America?"

Yeah. I lost momentum, but I still enjoyed it.

I haven't really watched this since around 1999-2001. I remember thinking it was okay/nothing too special.
