Rob Schneider directed, wrote and starred in this?? This is a disaster. By the time anything happens in this movie, you will have thought you watched three of them already.
The movie is a festival of bad CGI, horrible plot attempts and downright embarrassing attempts at humor. What little was left in the now dated and "living-on-old-fame" actors Steve Buscemi and Rob Schneider is gone so far it can't even look back. In this movie, they are neither funny, nor entertaining in any way.
The movie centers around a successful man who lives in a huge house and has money galore. He is the most successful salesman of his dealership, and yet he just about loses his mind when his wife leaves him. He faces this so badly he tries to comically commit suicide, and acts like a moron at work. All good and well for a short gag, but this behavior goes on for an entire hour and a half of the movie - during which it is wholly depressing to watch it. He is then visited by some random native American douches from Colombia, who believe him to be "The chosen one" - which they do not explain in any way. They just keep insisting on it, and depressingly eating coca leaves on the carpet in his house, while leeching him for money and pouring his beer into the sink when he isn't looking. They also fix his houseplants with cocaine magic.
The movie is full of product placements and stupid explanations of every single event, present or past, as if the viewer is a retard unable to piece frames together. It is packed with clichés, from native American visions with eagles to flutes playing when tribesmen so much as speak or eagles appear on screen. Naturally, there is a naive romantic subplot involving a gorgeous model (ex-government embassy employee, yeah...) guiding the natives to LA. Understandably, it is impossible to meet an unattractive woman in LA, especially if she means you well and came from far away to see you.
I still have no idea what genre this movie is supposed to be - I'd like to call it a drama, because it definitely is not funny, but it lacks any kind of message, any kind of plot, and any kind of point (unless their point is that car salesmen are evil, and should turn their lives around helping animals, vegetarians and shamans while defying gravity). It falls apart at every seam and provides no pleasure whatsoever on any level.
If you want to watch a good movie, do not watch this under any circumstances. If you want to see how low Buscemi and Schneider have sunk, watch this and wince.
