Sean’s sorry life and his eccentric place of employment provide the humor in this independent comedy from first-time filmmaker, Patrick Hasson. [1]
A silly, awkward, but sometimes very funny movie. [4]
With cameos by adult film star Ron Jeremy and B-movie director Lloyd Kaufman.

[...] Sean McNutt has been dumped by his girlfriend, kicked to the curb by his parents, and his acting career is at a standstill. [1]
Another thing about this movie that made it so funny was a game that the men of the restaurant played. [...] Young employees at Shenaniganz restaurant collectively stave off boredom and adulthood with their antics. [2]
But when he learns that Chett, a high school classmate, now has a lucrative career in electrical engineering, he’s thrown into turmoil about his dead-end life. [3]
