niagra motel

there was a really cheap movie sale at the video store going out of business, thats the only reason i got this. its got craig ferguson in it, how bad can it be, right? ugh.
the whole thing is a play turned into a movie, and it really shows. the whole thing is set in a run down motel just outside of the niagara falls tourist area. it follows a bunch of people as they make important life decisions, one couple is broke and thinking of divorce, a local waitress is hoping to make it big, and some crooks are trying to hide out. all the while craig ferguson is just trying to keep the place clean. each of the dramas set up in the film are pretty flat, i dont know if thats due to poor writing, or just poor acting, either way, its poor. craig, the main reason i got the movie in the first place, is only on screen for all of 7 minutes, so i guess i cant blame him for the lame movie.
