Melbourne comedy duo Stephen Kearney and Neill Gladwin play the pair of hapless garbos, and there are some genuinely funny moments in the film. Unfortunately, like many comedies, there are not enough funny moments to sustain the film over 90 minutes, and some parts are just silly. However, the inclusion of some real actors, particularly Max Cullen as their educated Czech driver, veteran TV cop Gerard Kennedy as the dodgy holiday camp owner, Moya O'Sullivan as Neill's mum, and Imogen Annesley as the yummy librarian who accepts Steve's love, lift the film somewhat.

The comedy genre refers to a category of entertainment that aims to amuse and entertain audiences by using humor, wit, and comedic situations.
