I stayed with the movie to the end hoping to find some redeeming value. Humor was sick, there were no good laughs, the plot thin, and it appeared to be nothing more than an exercise in foul language. There were no good laughs. Susan Sarandon is really stooping to take roles like this, wasting her talent. I am now convinced that Goldie Hawn is washed-up. I wasted the $15 that this DVD cost. It would have been a waste at $2.

The humor is just as fresh today as it was when I first saw it several years ago. Goodings shows a depth of talent that this viewer really appreciates. His expressions are nearly as plastic as Jim Carrey's and spontaneous enough to steal the show without any lines.

This movie has it all. All but the gratuitous sex, violence, and foul language that seen to be the predominant theme of contemporary adult films. I have known people like the three convicts central to this story.. this makes the story somewhat plausible. The music is wonderful, the story is funny, casting was superb and the photography in (almost) sepia draws the viewer into the era. I loved the movie, watched it twice, and will watch it again.
