Goofs:
Continuity: In the first church scene, when the choir finishes singing the spiritual, there is a wide shot of the church congregation. Most of the congregation located within the middle pews can be clearly seen giving a standing ovation. There is a cutaway to Durell and LeeJohn in which most of the congregation located within the middle pews are sitting or beginning to sit. After the cutaway the scene returns to same wide shot of the congregation. Most of the congregation located within the middle pews are still standing and only now are beginning to sit. more

Durell: You need to worry about getting your hair burnt.

Didn't See What Was "THAT" Bad About It, 17 May 2008
5/10
Author: Dragoneyed363 from United States

Let me start off with the bad things in this movie:

-There was a lot of unbelievable material.

-Some of the acting was poor.

-Most of the funny material wasn't funny at all.

-There was about 2 to 3 cliché's

Now,the good things:

-I "DID" laugh at maybe 4 lines.Not hysterical laughing,but still a little chuckle.

-It managed to keep me entertained,and I was actually sucked into the story plot a little.

Overall,this movie "WAS" kind of bad,but not terrible.I wouldn't recommend it,but yet wouldn't say to absolutely avoid it.

It was nothing special,but if you feel like watching it,be my guest.
