I enjoyed this lighthearted comedy very much. I had quite a few laugh out loud moments! I related to Mr. Jackson because we have all had these bad days, but not to this extreme thank goodness haha. I found myself cheering for him to escape his freaky unpredictable nightmare of a day. David Born was made to play this role. Kathy Garver shined as always. I always like watching Robert LaSardo so that was a win. Director Johnny Ray Gibbs not only wrote this film, but also acts in it. His hard work and effort paid off! Great job! Even the music was engaging and fitting for the action happening in the film. The camera work was great, as was the editing. Definitely worth a watch. Great film!
All the actors and Actresses were on point. It was very funny, David Born did an Awesome job acting, he made me laugh so much. For me to pick the one of the best part of the Movie is when he ran into the Mafia guys, I loved that scene but all and all a GREAT MOVIE for a family to Watch !!! Arthie Pasquale from the Sapranos was Awesome, Butch Patrick Awesome, Kath Garver was excellent in this. The Movie was close to 2hrs long but it was full of comedy I just couldn't stop laughing. The Mafia guy with the bald head was so good at his part I think his name is Joe Di Bari. Now the 2 Cops Tony Ferro & Robert LaSardo where also excellent.
Clean, no skin, no smut, just a fantastic comedy that the whole family can enjoy. A truly funny story of a guy that just keeps having the worse luck. The situational comedy mixed with a great cast gives us a sensational comedy that had the whole theater laughing and clapping. Speaking of cast, Kathy Graver is so funny, but classy and lovely at the same time. David Dorn's performance is spot on and totally nailed the character. And watch for the cameos of Buford, Mr Gibbs totally brought him to life.
If we had more directors like Mr Gibbs, the entertainment industry would not be in such shambles.

A well made indie film that is geared to be light and funny entertainment. It's not Shakespeare but it serves its purpose. The trials of an everyman - just like many Charlie Chaplin films. 99% of this film being a day in the life of a fellow where everything goes wrong in a comedic sense as he tries to get back home. Great cameos here and there. David Born as that everyman, doesn't miss a beat - as the lead in this "The Odyssey meets Buster Keaton" esk film.
I did like that as a running gag the lead keeps ending up in the same hospital but much worse for the wear each time. Many of his trials we can all associate with. Also his reaching out to the Catholic church only to be confronted by the priest and then chased out on his ear by the very funny nun bearing an active ruler.

Funny and kinda slapstick at times. A good family movie. When u think you are having a bad day!
Great actors well done film. You may recognize quite a few of the actors in it. This was Johnny Ray Gibbs first production directing has he has been an actor in many films including The Highwayman with Kevin Costner. Starring in the film is David Born who is absolutely hilarious his reactions and his expressions and comments really help solidify the movie. Then you have Kathy Garver could not have had a better person playing across from him she keeps him on his toes it helps to control his hypochondriac condition. A lot of other names in the film that you will recognize all in all it's a good solid comedy.
