Everything about this film was above average except the script. The lighting, steady-cam, sound, score, shot direction, performance by no-name actors (no offense meant), background direction, EVERYTHING was so far above the line for a low-budget film... or any film for that matter, but the script SUCKED SO LOUD it could be heard across the planet. I bought this DVD because some of my actor friends told me that the Cinematography was so awesome... I had to see it. And it WAS ! The editing was brilliant ! ! !

I'm telling you... this film was a "script" away from a truck load of awards.

I have walked away from 2 films in my life... this was one. So frigging boring for 68 minutes... I wanted to go mow the yard..or get a tooth pulled.

Swing and a miss for Zach Braff on this one... stay with voice overs and leave the "WRITIN'" for somebody else. However.. if you can gather that crew...for what you paid them... I can make you famous.

Without a doubt, one of the most horribly directed films in the past decade. I'm from Texas and I know the story of the Alamo and I had a hard time following the film. Unreal poor direction by John Lee. Cinematography was A+, as was art, SFX and stunts. But the direction was so bad that I wanted to get up and leave the theater. One more thing, were there NO stunts in this film? Must not have been because the `lettuce chopper' and her `assistant' got credits but NOT ONE stunt person received a credit. Without Billy Bob's performance as David Crockett and the action scenes, this film is a TOTAL waste of time. Way to go John Lee… you ruined possibly the easiest project of your career. 2 thumbs down!

This may be long but if you plan on spending 90 minutes of your time watching this "film"..spend 5 reading this. Adam Sandler... awesome. This film proves that he can perform with crap. Direction: Only "Manos; Hands of Fate" is worse. This "film" was amateurishly thrown together in an attempt to be vogue. The direction was horrid and the script was incomplete. Such a shame too because the idea had HUGE potential if only it had a real screen writer and a real Director. The cinematography was exceptional with several long unedited scenes remaining in focus. As bad as this film was..it's a must-see to show film makers what NOT to do. Give this film ANY real Director and it is a smash ! ! Huge potential down the drain!

Absolutely one of the best-worst movies ever. If you are a fan of MST3K.. you gotta see this one. It ranks up there with Squirm and Pod people as one of the best MST3K's done. The Direction is absolutely horrible and the acting is.... well, it's horrible also. ENJOY!

If you want to see a movie that has no reason for being.... you'll enjoy this. If you want to criticize a movie for looking like Reservoir Dogs or whatever...dont get this one. It's a very good film and the acting is great. But take it for what it is...A MOVIE! This was Rene's last Indy film before taking off with Jerry Maguire and the film is just fun. Dont dig deep in it...just enjoy it. The DP was aweful and the lighting is bad at times but that adds to the film.

I have seen this movie about 25 times and it is absolutely one of the funniest movies I've ever seen. The comedy is fresh and deep at times but if you have any sort of a sense of humor...you'll love it. The characters are built well and the film flows evenly until the end. Farva is the funniest character and works well with the others.

Buy it!
