Liking this film really depends on whether or not you like the main star, Harland Williams. Here in the UK, he's only really famous for his scene in Dumb and Dumber, and everything else he's done non-Farrelly, has gone straight to DVD and disappeared without a trace.

What appealed to me about this movie, and you will know where I am coming from if you've read my other reviews, is that its one of those films from the late nineties that were rife and were released almost every other week.

Comedies that shouldn't be good, but for some reason, you seem to have some endearment for them.

Carpool, Gone Fishin', Most Wanted, the list is endless, and the films are as watchable as ever.

It's a straight forward movie, silly geek gets a job that is over his head, every one hates him and takes liberties to begin with, but come the end, he's the hero and he falls in love.

It's straight forward silly stuff, with a few laughs that you can switch your brain off to for ninety or so minutes.

If you haven't seen it and like this sort of movies, catch it, its quite funny
