Scott's Review:
2.5 out of 5 stars on November 5, 2000

You know, I would have liked to like this movie more. But I really couldn't handle the ending. It seems as if the movie was an entire build up to one very twisted ending.

Ignoring the last five minutes of the film, it's a great story. Basically the story of a kid, who when given an assignment to "change the world," actually manages to do just that. He creates this scheme to cause goodwill to ripple through society, and it manages to work. Told in a very interesting way, from the beginning, and end, with the plot lines converging in the middle of the story, it's a cute, well-done movie.

Then, the last five minutes happened. I don't want to ruin the end for those that haven't seen this flick yet, but it's horrendous in my opinion. They completely ruined the story for me.
