The key is to watch this with no expectations
4 October 2017
I had never heard of this film, and picked it from a menu purely based on the brief text description. It sounded potentially funny.

Having no idea of the cast, kept us guessing who could be Gunther - had we seen trailers or read reviews prior to watching, the experience might have been disappointing. Diving in with no expectations, however, kept us well entertained all the way to the end of the film!

Yes, you could often guess what was going to happen, and most characters were stereotypical, but it was still good fun. We weren't expecting a serious work of art.

Blake's nervous chain smoking was also refreshing as you don't really see that much in films, these days, with smoking having become so non-PC..

If you have managed not to see any trailers or read any spoiler reviews yet, do yourself a favour: go and watch this film with no expectations. It's actually quite hilarious!

One of the worst movies I've seen!
3 October 2003
I like Salma Hayek, I like Russell Crowe.. I had never heard of this movie until I noticed it on the TV guide, but seeing who were starring in it, I was expecting some entertainment.. How wrong was I!! :O It turned out to be really, Really bad! Forced dialogue all through the movie, plus I felt the director had been playing with as many different camera techniques as he could think of - ending up making a big mess of waste. Such disappointment..

The only potential bit was the scene where he was taking a bath, getting a mental image of the bodybuilder type she described on the phone.. But it wasn't funny enough to save the movie.

This one's best avoided..
