There's a reason co-stars John Leguizamo and Bob Hoskins took shots between takes while filming this inexplicable disaster. But you can't expect wonders. They were already squeezing blood from a stone plot-wise when director Roland Joffe, of The Killing Fields, began speaking to Nintendo about the prospects of a feature film.

The script was passed down and re-written ad nauseum, the direction was handed to couple Rocky Morton and Annabel Jankel due to their work in music videos and the cast kept changing.
