L² Comment:
Sandra & Lowell is a good team in the comedy film as well, plus on with Gabriel, the 3 of them make me laugh non-stop like an idiot when i watched this movie last night. The movie is a bit out of "normal" stuff, but who cares right? This is a black comedy film and everything is possible~
