A completely lame product. Just a bunch of talking and proselytizing, with the production and look of a soap opera, but not a campy and fun one. There's no passion here or originality or anything other than pap. Even if you're a fan of these actors I don't think it would entertain.

He loves big set pieces and big laughs intertwined with the disgusting goopy stuff, and a little Halloween flavor topping it off.
Essentially this is the unofficial 4th movie…
