Truly the worst movie I've ever seen in a theater

Protraph

Lack of good storyline.

CrawlerChunky

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
