A review by Gimly

Written by Gimly on 2019-10-02

I thought that this was a terrible idea way before I ever saw the movie itself, and I thought this was a terrible movie way before I ever found out what P.T. Barnham was actually like. What a toilet fire in every sense, this is one of those rare examples where I just **can't** understand what everyone is loving here.

_Final rating:★½: - Boring/disappointing. Avoid where possible._
