At times, it seems like one of the other actors should poke her with a stick, just to see if she's still with us. Doug McHenry's direction is clumsy and stilted, making the film feel like a series of pasted-together skits. The movie was adapted from a play, and it never escapes that stagy feel. But the film is chaotic, uneven and laced with stock characters pulled straight from the '70s. There's never a sense of direction or a feeling that Kingdom Come really adds up to anything.
Trouble is, there's more to making movies than putting together a big ensemble cast.
