when i saw this movie i felt myself bad. this is the worst movie ever done. truly. there are some bad low-budget movies, but at least you can laugh at them. but it doesn't work in this. it is so bad that crying is the only feeling that it makes. the movie pretends to be a funny comedy about las vegas, but it only is a horror movie, with some free sex and violence in order to have some audience. the only use that this movie has is to learn the people how do you don't have to a movie in all aspects: writing (this word doesn't exist for joey travolta -as the word cinema-), photography (the director of photography was drunken all the time), editing (no, joey, you are not david fincher), acting (acting without director must be difficult, i understand). i saw it at night on tv because i couldn't sleep and now i have nightmares for this movie. i hate this movie and i hate joey travolta.

a Joey Travolta's comedy
Serpent-516 April 1999
Travolta (the brother of John) made his debut in SUNNYSIDE, but nothing really happen to his career. So he is trying to make a name for himself in low-budget films and now directing. This is one of his films, and it's a comedy about a lounge singer who wants to borrow money so he can bring his cousins from Jersey over to see him perform in Las Vegas. Well, Joey is framed for murder and now it's up to his cousins (one of them played by David "Nunzio" Proval) and a detective (Jeff Conaway) to find out who set him up. The film has italian jokes, an Elvis acting cop, and Joey singing with model Kelly Emberg (who plays his girlfriend in the film). Even John Landis has a cameo in the film. The film is not a big film, but a little film with a feel of a lot of effort was made to put it together. I hate to pick on small films, but the film needs to be trimmed a bit for it got boring near the end. I can't recommend it, but it's not a bad little film. See it if you like Joey!
