Ouch! I guess we can't be surprised that this is playing on only one screen here in one of the boroughs of Toronto. That area is also conveniently home to one of the largest Chinese "enclaves" in the whole region, next to the one near me, so it's a bit obvious who they're targeting with this little gem. I'm almost tempted to make the drive across town to see it; it sounds just bad enough for me to sink my teeth into. :lol:
