As someone who hated the trailer back at release but enjoyed Rat Race later on DVD, I see both sides. If you’re expecting a satire, it’s not cohesive enough. It’s full of many great gags, however, and might be more comparable to Dumb & Dumber. Personally I find the acting too good to resist and still watch it occasionally.

Most people here don’t have water heaters; cold water is the norm. Some take a hot bath now and then, for aches and such. Most say hot water is harder on their skin. Personally I haven’t found a noticeable difference.

Olive oil here. The market nearby doesn’t sell canola oil because it was never popular. MSG is also great on popcorn.

Walled garden makes it sound like a place someone maintains for communal pleasure. Lobster trap makes me picture someone caged for sale. Delicious lobster.

Yeah, seems like a bunch of instances getting the ol’ death hug right now
