Don't bother
Seen a preview about this film, on another DVD, and it looked so good! When I come to watch this film it was nothing like the preview at all. Found it to be boring from start to finish. Maybe there's another one similar to this one, but I'm not aware of it. It's definitely going to the Charity shop!
