THREE TEENAGE BOYS THINK THEY ARE GOING TO HAVE A DATE WITH AN OLDER WOMAN, BUT WHEN THEY GET TO HER PLACE, THEY ARE DRUGGED AND KIDNAPPED BY A GROUP RELIGIOUS FANATICS. WHILE TRYING TO ESCAPE, THE ATF RAIDS THE GROUP'S COMPOUND.
THIS IS DIRECTOR KEVIN SMITH'S ATTEMPT AT MAKING A MOVIE WHICH IS NOT A COMEDY. HIS DIRECTING IS FINE -- THE MOVIE MOVES ALONG AND KEEPS YOU INTERESTED -- HE GETS GOOD PERFORMANCES FROM HIS ACTORS, BUT THE WRITING AND THE PLOT ARE VERY WEAK. THERE IS BARELY A STORY, THERE A TWO OR THREE MAJOR HOLES IN THE PLOT THAT CAN'T BE OVERLOOKED AND I THINK I KNOW WHAT SMITH WAS TRYING TO SAY, BUT HE JUST DOESN'T SAY IT VERY WELL. WHEN IT'S OVER, YOU REALLY DON'T CARE ABOUT WHAT YOU JUST SAW.
RATING 2 OUT OF 5
THE RENTAL DVD HAS NO SPECIAL FEATURES.
