Tied for the worst film that I have watched this year.

With the exception of maybe one, the characters were super annoying personality-wise, and they were constantly running a stream of idiotic dialogue. The lone exception amongst the main three was the character played by Rachael Sanchez, who seemed like the only one who was not some hyperactive, puffed-up, phony persona. She didn't have very many lines by comparison, so perhaps she approached something like that at one point or another.

As obnoxious as the dialogue was, the video & sound effects were somewhat even more so. The film was full of emoticons and phone graphics that would pop up on occasion, and there was even a laugh track to let you know when the film was attempting humor.

Speaking of humor, there was a lot of the toilet variety within it, and some pretty gross stuff at that.

Suffice it to say, I will not be watching again, and I recommend avoiding it.

There were several dumb jokes/gags*, some amusing ones, and at least a few that seemed like I had seen before in American films like The Naked Gun series and National Lampoon's Loaded Weapon. Perhaps even Airplane. (*not something that I necessarily dislike, but there were many in her that I could have done without)

I feel like the spoof genre has been run into the ground, and most from the past 20 years, get too obsessed with the gags, and forget to tell a decent story, but I am still willing to watch the ones that I haven't seen, and I will certainly re-watch the classics.

I am unlikely to watch again.

It's not one that I would recommend or say to avoid.

Available on Tubi TV.

It's a bit of a Christian film, and I am not a Christian, but there was nothing about that aspect per se, that bothered me about the film. There were lines related to it that I did find amusing. Like the one's about the deceased mother's dream of Zena going to bible college.

I don't want to give the wrong impression, the Christian side of the story was fairly limited, and it wasn't preachy. At times, it didn't seem like one at all, and sometimes seemed like an anti-Christian film, but little things would occasionally pop-up and it was a part of the end message Zena delivers.

Found a lot of script & story weird and the production a bit weak. Not weird in a cool way, but in a cheesy amusing way. I'm sure there were budgetary constraints, but they couldn't get a crowd for their showcase performance that happened early in the film. (I'm pretty sure there was supposed to an audience there.)

The lead had a nice voice and her songs were okay. Not really my fare but not a style I avoid. (I'm assuming it was her voice.)

There's a lot more that I would to say, but it would get into spoiler territory, but I will mention that I didn't care for something that happened near the end. It wasn't terrible just a bit of a eye-rolling groaner.

This movie is ripe for riffing, so might watch again as part of a cheesy movie night, and I wouldn't recommend it beyond that.
