NO. One of the worst movies I've ever seen in my life--and when I saw it, I was only 15. That was 11 years ago. TERRIBLE film. {nm} chosenone2oo5 Aug 15, 22:05

Large %'s to be expected on films with narrow target market (Hillary, Rad, anything Tyler Perry). What's the largest gross with a 50%+ dif? {nm} PhoneHome Aug 15, 14:59
