    Decent Fun Movie, Diora Baird is the star of it.
    This movie was made in the mid 2000s, and back in those days VVS(VideoVille Showtime) the company that made it(or at least edited it in Quebec) where known to have Awful dubbing. Nowaways they corrected that and there movies usually end up being pretty good DTV release, but back then sadly there Stigmat of bad dubbing really gave them a bad reputation among french viewer. Not sure if you can relate but for us these dubbing where like the late nigh erotic movies on cable TV, pretty bad low quality with always the same voice "talents". I always watch dubbed movies until a couple years ago, and just to make sure you understand its all fine for me to watch a movie in french dub. But these VVS movies where pretty terrible in term of voice.

    Now keeping that in mind, i got myself a french dubbed only copy from my local video store(part of the 5$ bargain bin for sale) and as soon as the movie started, i noticed the voices and look on the cover... VVS... old move, arg, but well i started it, so better keep going right? And honestly i was pleasantly surprised. The story is nice enough, could had use a bit more jokes and funny parts, as its even mentioned in big on the back "a story like the whole nine yard" , and it was nowhere near as funny, but nonetheless its interesting and i got to mention the performance by Diora Baird is what support this movie. OK she is extremely gorgeous, and just that is enough to captivate us and like her in the part of the love interest, but her acting and character really felt so charming and lovely. I mean, you got this gorgeous big breasted woman(and usually Diora play the stripper or such part), but she is a bubbly and fun without pretension charming girl.

    Its hard to explain but this i what drove me in the most in the movie. You got a couple big names of B stuff in Jason Prestley and Carmen Electra but lets just say they are mostly in it to catch the eye with there names and faces on the cover. The real star is Diora by a mile away.

    So i think i will probably try to find myself an English DVD of this, if i want to watch it again. Trust me these dubbing are just so awful, sadly good movies suffers of them and i wish they would be dubbed again... But well if your an English viewer watching the original version, your all fine. I recommend it for a fun time without any pretension. Its low budget tough, don't expect big explosions and super mega action scenes
