    What is this ?

    Saw this "movie" at a friends house. Was told it is so bad it is good, but it is even worse than that. Its so bad its ... just bad. Boring and pointless there is no purpose to this movie. If its a documentary it has no message other than look at this and look at this.... at the level of an Expedia video but not as well shot.

    If it is a movie it does not contain a point. The hosts are boring, uninspired and frankly annoying.

    Don't bother. Not worth your time. If you see this in some church bookstore or something just pass on it. As far as I know it isn't available anywhere. I also can't imagine it made any money.
