VividSimon Simply Perfect
Stellead Don't listen to the Hype. It's awful
Cleveronix A different way of telling a story
Lidia Draper Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.
