★ 8/10
Your pee-pee?!? Hahaha. What a movie! It is complete nonsense from beginning to end. I am sitting here typing this still trying to figure out what the hell I just watched. Every scene is completely weird and the acting is ridiculous. There is nothing normal about this film. It's like an alien pretending to be a human wrote the script and asked Tommy Wiseau to direct it. It's why I'm giving it 8/10 stars. The closest thing I can compare it to is Blame it on Rio. It is kinda like that but with an incredibly bonkers incestuous wrinkle. Sweet Jesus, this was nuts.
