Trivia
First nude scenes and sex scenes in a feature film of Australian actress Teresa Palmer.

Goofs
Andrew's car is a Mercedes 190SL Roadster. As it it started a couple of times, its distinctively lolling idle speed sound is heard.

In one scene, a person is unconscious in the same car with a garden hose leading exhaust fumes in the cabin.

There is smoke all over, but the engine appears not to be running.

Quotes
Dale: [as he avoids looking at her body] Grow up, Andy. So what's she like, this chick, huh? Does she talk like you?
Andrew: [softly] I suppose so.
Dale: You can look at me, Andy. Mm. You've never been to a strip club?
Andrew: No, I haven't.
Dale: So, how long has she been away?
Andrew: Six months.
Dale: You don't worry she's got her legs wrapped around some other guy by now?
Andrew: No. She's not like that.
Dale: Like what? Normal?
Andrew: Like you.
Dale: Let me tell you something, Andy. They're *all* like me.

Well I must confess the only reason I picked this movie out was to see Stephen Moyer presented himself out of True Blood. Never heard of the movie before that. Oh, and the cover girl looked good...All in all, it's not that bad of a watch. Considering the number of characters in the entire movie it was certainly well made and keeps you engrossed till the end. Of course during the entire movie I was thinking I didn't realize Kristen Stewart was that hot until I realized later that it wasn't her, it was Teresa Palmer and she's smokin' if you get my drift. If not for Moyer and Fimmel, see this movie for Palmer, she certainly deserves more than a look! I'd give a 10/10 for her, but considering the meek storyline, I'll drop it by 4 notches.
