This so-called movie deals with capitalism at its best, and worst.
The movie tells the story of a young guy, who somehow manages to get a very desired job that used to belong to an older guy.
Sounds interesting? Oh, really? Well, it`s not. The plot is quite boring and doesn`t really go anywhere. To top it all, the acting is average, at best.
The video transfer is ok. There are no compression signs to be seen.
The DD 5.1 soundtrack is average. the surrounds are hardly used, but hey - for this kind of a movie (and an average one, too) - it`s acceptable.
The menus are animated with sound.
The extras include a commentary and a behind the scenes featurette.
Bottom line - with a boring plot and an average disc to match, this is a "rent once if you really want to, then forget you ever saw it".
