I was actually eager to see the movie (I love mullet rock and I can't see the stage version Down Under) UNTIL I found out that the movie version changed the storyline; the bad guys were changed from German real estate developers, into conservative, prudish women. I mean, come on. Where's the fun in that? Uptight lady (Catherine Zeta Jones) versus a campy actor doing evil, badly accented german? I'm sick of the conservative right (got enough of that in the news), I want some campy, badly accented fun!
But based on the reviews, the movie takes itself too seriously - it drops the camp. Hence why I changed my mind and didn't go to see it this week.
