There are times when there is a great divide between critic ratings and audience reception. However, this movie has received negative ratings from across the board. Even at its release back in 1999, the studio must’ve regretted making investments for this film, grossing only $292k at the box office. The critic’s consensus sums it up best, stating that there are better options than this film no matter how starved you are from movie entertainment.
