Get yourself a stand-in for this movie

This was beyond bad from start to finish. Do yourself a favour and do not rent or watch this horror of a movie. Made it through only because we paid for it. It was an embarrassment for Drew Barrymore and we kept asking ourselves, why on earth did she do this movie. It's uncomfortable to watch and not at all funny.
