This film tries to be everything but fails at every turn. Is it meant to be whimsical? Is it a social comment on the dangers of alcohol and drugs? It's certainly insulting to the Canadian people it caricatures. I find it difficult to believe that anyone involved with the film thought it worth releasing, it's bereft of any originality or style. I went with four friends of varying ages and we were all agreed on how bad it was, so it is a film which cuts across the generation divide - all of us disliked it thoroughly..It is a very disappointing film with all its sources, from Whisky Galore to Amelie showing. Do yourself a favour and watch the originals again instead of this shabby copycat of a film.
