The primary goal is to act....to bring the audience into a different reality. Does Tom C. Act? No...he runs, he jumps (just like on Oprah's show), he jumps out of planes, etc., etc. This movie is the worst I have ever seen. Mindless, juvenile antics. I gave it 20 minutes and then tuned to ''30'', a 1959 movie directed by Jack Webb. More acting in its 3 minute preview than all of Tiny Tom's movies combined.
