Though I agree that this film is not in the same league as Solondz's next two films, "Welcome to the Dollhouse" and "Happiness," this film was still a lot of fun to watch. There are some big laughs throughout the film, like the character Junk and the original songs they wrote. I believe it's supposed to be tongue-in-cheek cheesiness, especially when Solondz himself belts through cheesy love songs and has himself looking and acting like Woody Allen.
Solondz is obviously a talented writer, and while probably only hardcore fans of Solondz will check this film out, I think anyone ready for some good cheesy fun will like this film.
