Critical reception
JoBlo.com wrote a positive review for the film commenting that it was "awfully good" and that while it qualified as a bad movie, this made it enjoyable.[3] Rob Gonsalves of eFilmCritic.com panned it, writing "Absolutely none of this is interesting or entertaining, not even on the level of "I am actually watching a pomeranian who's supposed to be Gary Busey.""[4]
The Dove Foundation's review was mostly positive, writing that the "story tempo is somewhat inconsistent, and some scenery and characters are less than believable" but that it was also "loaded with slapstick and silly characters chasing and being chased, mixed with prat falls and double takes."[5]
