Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaTo celebrate 6 weeks of hard work, the executives purchased a large cake for the crew on the last day of photography. The cake was being stored in the production office, which, unbeknownst to special effects supervisor Jamie Sled, was equipped with a video surveillance security system. When co-director Colin Carter went to retrieve the cake at the end of the day, all that he found in its place was a sheet of paper colored in with crayons to crudely resemble the original cake. Upon reviewing the security footage from earlier that day, Sled was clearly visible on camera committing the swap. Despite extensive effort by the production to locate and prosecute Jamie Sled, he has never been seen since and it is assumed that he fled the country. Due to the underlying circumstances it is now assumed that Sled was also a ringleader in the notorious 'cookie bandit' case.

Mob Boss: Is everything all set?
Henchman #1: Yeah, boss.
Henchman #2: Yeah, Albert's gonna make sure that little weasel has sung his last song.
Henchman #1: Weasels don't sing.
Henchman #2: What?
Henchman #1: A canary sings, not a weasel. You're mixing your metaphors.

Featured review
Sally writes a column about life she's never actually experienced. Albert doesn't believe in life and specializes in ending it. It's sappy and it's a feel good comedy despite the dark premise on which it's built. Just expect to laugh, there are no revelations about the nature of life, no thrilling car chases with ninja flips. Just an absurd plot that you cannot help but laugh at as it twists and turns and leaves you the better for having watched it.
