Warning: Spoilers
Schlock has its place, but schlock with highbrow pretensions like this mess of a film is just laughable. It's too overblown and ludicrous to even be truly offensive, nonwithstanding the scenes of the fourteen year old Ellie's post-coital spooning with her daddy. The twist ending will be no surprise to anyone who has ever seen a few episodes of "Law and Order." I'll give it two points for some unintentional humour, as when Ms Stiles hisses at her father about the telltale birthmark on his left "butt cheek" (making him whimper like a spanked puppy), but otherwise this film is nothing more than a waste of two talented young actresses.
