This has become one of my favorite movies. This is partly because I am the biggest C. Thomas Howell fan out there. The plot: young man comes back to get revenge on the people who killed his parents when he was still a kid. The scene of their death is so sad. This movie makes you laugh, cry, and grab the edge of your seat. The inside joke with the dog is really cute. The romance between the Kid and the leading lady (Sarah Trigger-terrific job) is so sweet. Even though I don't believe in getting revenge, especially when it has to do with murder, I felt very sorry the main character. It shows a great sign of talent a viewer feels compasion for a character whether or not that person agrees with the action he/she takes in the movie. Rent it, buy it, see it. You won't be sorry.

C. Thomas Howell does an outstandingly funny job as a down-on-his-luck actor who suddenly becomes the most talked about person on tv. It just isn't the kind of attention he wants. His ex-wife (Ally Sheedy, Breakfast Club) has written a "fictitious" novel detailing the horrible things that Bernard Spratt(Howell) did to her. This is all a lie of course. WHat does he do about it? Gets even of course. He puts his acting to the test when he dresses up as someone else to get revenge on his ex-wife. Ally Sheedy is brilliant as the overly dramatic and very bitchy high-maintance ex-wife. Hilaroiusly funny! A must see! 10/10

I laughed so much I cried. C.Thomas Howell does an outstandingly funny job as a down on his luck actor who suddenly becomes the most talked about name around. It's just not the kind of attention he wants. His ex-wife (Ally Sheedy, Breakfast Club)has written a book saying terrible things about him that everyone believes. So what does he do about it? Gets revenge of course. He's an actor. He can do it. He puts his acting to the test when he dresses up as someone else to get revenge on his ex-wife. Don't want to give away too much. It's a must see!! Hilariously funny! 10/10
