He tries to talk Melinda out of the wedding, but before that, he tries to show who Ron really is so he decided to make a wild bachelor party, in hope of catching Ron and canceling the wedding.
Reception
The trade publication Video Business said the film "moves at a fast clip, but the jokes are lackluster, leaving only the female cast members’ topless scenes as a potential selling point."[1]
A reviewer for The Observer, an independent student-run newspaper covering Rutgers University, called it "one of the worst movies I have ever seen" and noted that it was only Sara Foster's appearance in the film that kept him watching.[6]
IGN in its review of the DVD said "A film that probably shouldn't have been made, yet there are going to be loads of people out there who will enjoy this disaster because, as the old advertising motto states, "sex sells." [7]
Cast
As billed,[8] the cast also includes Greg Pitts, Harland Williams, Warren Christie, Danny A. Jacobs, Max Landwirth, Emmanuelle Vaugier, Karen-Eileen Gordon, Mauricio Sanchez, Steven Crowley, and Audrey Landers.
