I don't like this movie for any of the superficial reasons that have been stated so far. I disliked this movie until I started this reply. In writing my original reply, I went back to my critical analyzation skills that were honed and sharpened like crazy by my English professor last semester. In so doing, I came to realize that my first impression after having seen this movie was quite wrong. Suffice it to say that the central message of this movie is that of "loser-cum-hero", Napoleon, Pedro and Kip being the losers-cum-heroes. I thought initally that the way in which they achieved their heroic was self-defeating, but it isn't. Not a good movie, not a bad movie, just watchable.
