Oh how bad can you get?

Rating: 4/10 (10 December 2005)

What a bad movie. I didn't see it at the theater, but saw it as a DVD rental. As I was watching it, I found myself wanting to channel surf. At least until I realized that this was a DVD.
The dialog is awful. The casting is sub-par. Ben Grim says "I can stand his (Johnny's) blond ambition ...." but the actor who plays Johnny isn't blond. Obviously casting forgot that Johnny is suppose to be a blond.
The plot line makes no sense. Do you expect Doom to propose to Sue w/o having ANY previous relationship with her? We find this out later when Sue confesses there NEVER was a Doom and Sue. This is the 21st century. A guy like Doom isn't going to propose marriage w/o any previous romantic relationship. Still another flub: Ben breaks out of his hospital room and heads straight for his girlfriend. Why didn't he just call her from the hospital? There are many other goofs.
Character arc? well its more like a straight line to dulls-ville.
About the only thing this movie has going for it is the special effects. You believe a man can stretch.
