Sorry didn't mean for that to post yet. The reviewers comment about the license plate was unnecessary, but myself I found the urninal in the middle of the state distracting, and rather distasteful in a following scene. But's that just my opinion. Bottom line folks it was just once person's point of view, was it worth of a "Tony"? No. Will it win a YACHTA? Who cares But I will end this with one comment. As for it receiving a standing ovation, don't read to much into that. Standing ovation's don't have the honor they used to have. There was a time when a standing ovation was given to something that was truly outstanding and worthy of it. Today a baby can gurgle and goo and suddendly it gets a standing ovation. Wake up little diva's you're in Youngstown, Ohio. If you're going to get this bent out of shape over a little review in a local paper, what on earth are you going to do when and if you make it to a big stage?
Are you people insane? It was a local review, in a local paper, by a local person? I was in the audience opening night and I have to wonder if some of you saw the same show I did? As the person who reviewed the show said, "IT'S ENJOYABLE" and it is. It had some moments that were very nice, and quite frankly some that weren't. I agree with the reviewer when it's stated that some movies should stay just that....movies. The transitions from movie to state and vive versa works in some situations, but not in this one. I didn't even see the script but I've done and seen enough theater to realize when a script is a little flat. But I commend Mr. Joki for taking the script and turning into something enjoyable.
Oakland’s ‘Full Monty’: too long, but enjoyable
