   Is Chumscrubber a good movie?

   • A strong cast promises great things, but The Chumscrubber loses itself on the way to its indie aspirations. Page 1 of 4, 7 total items. Great movie. Alot of life lessons in it. So many unique and different things happening at once. Good characters. Tedious, just tedious.
