This movie has -in a good way- the low-budget charm of a high school movie, using slightly sub-par film quality, seemingly local actors, and no special effects.
There's a lot of humor, and the movie doesn't take itself seriously - fitting well with the immature attitude of the main protagonist. After seeing the movie halfway and falling asleep (I typically watch a few movies in bed), I caught myself wanting to see the end the next day - and I was pleased I did. Except from Angelica Bridges (Baywatch) in a support role, I didn't recognize any actor - although lead actor Goran Visnjic has later, apparently, played in such movies as 'Elektra' and 'The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo'.
The story is nice and the sometimes irrelevant subplots don't bore, although the ending seemed a bit rushed and predictable.
If you like 'Le gendarme de Saint-Tropez' style movies, you may like this too.
