    This is a movie that is builds and gets funnier once you stick with it. It's odd from the begining but if you allow yourself to expect the unexpected and ridiculous you'll really like it. It may not be for everyone since it's so quirky, but if you have an imagination and want to watch something that's unlike anything out there, you'll love this move.

    Yes, this was a weird film, with a strange logic and odd characters, all of it, landed funny to me. I just had a blast watching this. When it first started I thought my cousins were going to kill me because it had a strangeness to it, but they were soon laughing out loud. The honeymoon scene will do down as a classic. Rent it you'll like it. And those of you how didn't, well, humor is in the eyes and gutt of the beholder.

    This film successfully skirted the border line between weird and bad taste. It might offend those that are religious but those of us who have an open fun mind, will laugh through out. It's a funny film. It's construction is more like the early Woody Allen films with a little Mel Brooks thrown in. Those films were mind kind of funny and so was this.
