A movie that wallows in its own quirkiness. It's like Zach Braff ejaculated onto celluloid.

Enrico Colantoni and James LeGros raise this barely above student film status. Their characters, along with the rural California setting, portray a very real and rarely seen in movies subculture. The washed-up athlete was so perfect. My love of rural California definitely gave me an enjoyment from this movie that others probably didn't have. Unfortunately, that can't make up for the derivative plot and terrible lead actor.

I've never wanted to punch a protagonist in the face more. Not only was the character completely annoying, but he was given the worst lines in the whole film and delivered them terribly. And is anyone else tired of the spunky, free-spirited female love interest in quirky indie comedies? All that said, James LeGros steals the show. He and Enrico Colantoni are the only redeeming factors.
