Very puerile humour and a pretty lame storyline.

'Less is more' is the lesson Hollywood often fails to learn.

A MTV-style creepy coachroach comedy that tries to be too cute for its own good. My kingdom for a can of Raid!

So much up-to- the-minute technology hasn't been used for so disastrous a product since the Hindenburg.

If it were even half as clever as the promotional web site -- which features such inventions as ROL, a parody of online service AOL -- it would be a small delight. But it's not.

John Payson's Joe's Apartment may well have been a funny MTV short, but stretched to feature length it's got to be the most putrid picture since The Garbage Pail Kids Movie nearly a decade ago.
