"And that's why I'm giving it one star, cos, believe me that is generous!!! It's not a great TV movie, it's not great anything. Even Sandra Bullock sucks, and that's saying something, coming from a fan. This is probably one movie she's filed under "forgettable" - along with Fire On The Amazon. It's no wonder I couldn't find out much information about this movie, as it's not even a proper movie, it's something that's shown on lowly TV channels during the day or late at night.There's no storyline to this movie. Well, apart from the minor blurb on the back. Apparently, someone called Patangko (or some other nonsense) gets shot and everyone is out for revenge. And when exactly was all this supposed to happen?! I lasted 56 minutes into the movie, and gave up all hope on living. It's set in the fifties, so cue lots of cheesy music, which missed out appearing on the soundtrack to other great fifties movies like Grease.And of course, all the guys look so alike, it's hard to tell them apart! Seriously, they've got the '50s style quiff, all gelled back, and I can't tell any of them apart. A big mistake either.I knew instantly it was a TV, cos they all use the same sort of font etc for their credits and the cheesiest music they could possibly lay their hands on. This is billed as a Sandra Bullock movie. She's the name under the title of the so called movie, her face is the main image on the front cover, and then on the back cover, you get a smaller image of her. So you'd start to think she was the main star in this? Well, you'd be seriously wrong. For starters, she's probably only got a small role. She'd only appeared twice before I switched it off, and that was 25 minutes into it - and then didn't appear again until 44 minutes! So don't kid yourself into thinking she's a big star in this - cos you will be like me and extremely disappointed. She's probably the only star from this who went onto become a major Hollywood star, and that's why it's been billed as a "Sandra Bullock" film - it's to get the cash out of your wallets and into their pockets.If you're desperate to get this movie, go onto Ebay, where I will be soon selling it, and many others are selling it, really cheap too most of the time. That's the only way to get it, but believe me, I will tell you how bad it is! It's about as bad as you can get. It's in the same league as The Last Time I Committed Suicide, The Last Broadcast, Lost Highway - although Last Broadcast and Lost Highway, I managed to sit through!!!"
Sandra Bullock Teenager?

"Unbiassed review not possible as I am a fan of Sandra Bullock, It is interesting how much younger and virginal Sandra Bullock looked prior to "While You Were Sleeping". The movie itself isn't otherwise worth while remembering - even the title, GVP"
