Attendance: Regal River Oaks Cinema 8, Decatur, AL, Aud. 8, 2001/03/22 19:20I enjoyed this movie and I disagree with the "horrible" description. The movie started out with some pretty good laughs but later in the movie there were periods that could have used some spicing up. The movie did get a lot of laughs from the people in the audience, so I consider it to be a successful comedy. Some of the gags were hilarious. This movie had one of the worst one-liners I'd ever heard in a movie (something about quitting sausage and becoming a vaginaterian). During the first half hour of the movie I was led to believe this was going to be another extremely funny comedy but felt a bit let down later in the movie, but overall, I had a great time. It is worth noting that the "hand over the mouth" gesture was used by several members of this audience quite often in reaction to some of the gags. The presentation was excellent, which is typical of this location. This theatre is an excellent example of "Film Done Right" consistently. Surprisingly, on this Friday night 7:20PM showing, there were a total of 8 people (includig me) in this 153-seat auditorium. Evans A Criswell

Quotes from Evans: "Surprisingly, on this Friday night 7:20PM showing, there were a total of 8 people (includig me) in this 153-seat auditorium.""Usually on Friday and Saturday night, there are at least bunches of rowdy teenagers who flock to these kinds of movies, but not this one." Again, leads me to believe that I'm not the only one who thinks the film totally blows. Were it not for the backwoods, redneck brothers it would have been deplorable. IMNSHO, of course.. ------------------ The early bird may get the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese!

No, Rachel, I liked it too! Just, I almost threw up when she wiped the bread under her arm pits! The afternoon I saw it, there were 22 people in this 452/453 auditorium. That's a lot of people for a Friday afternoon when most people are in school or working! ------------------ Andrew McCrea "I'm Not Bad, I'm Just Drawn That Way!" - Jessica Rabbit

I was playing hookie... <That's a joke, BTW!It was the first day of spring break for me because student led conferences were going on Thursday night and Friday all day. The rest of the neighbourhood was still working and going to school, like my little sister and big brother! My dad took me to Hooter's for lunch. I like that restaurant! ------------------ Andrew McCrea "I'm Not Bad, I'm Just Drawn That Way!" - Jessica Rabbit
