horrible start but great end

I'd give "Road Lawyers" a 3 by itself but there are other shorts on the tape. It barely makes sense and the "special effects" aren't very special. Escape From Heaven isn't a much better film about what heaven is really like (5 out of 10). Radar Men on the Moon made me laugh pretty hard because it is done like a Mystery Science Theater 3000 show but it seems like it took little effort to make aside from writing the jokes (8 out of 10). The final short Hairline was my favorite because it has some humor and some drama as it shows a middle-aged man coping with the lose of his hair (8 out of 10). If you fast forward through the first two shorts, this is an enjoyable tape. I have no idea why they headlined with Road Lawyers, but that is the reason it has such a low rating. I wish I could separate the votes for this movie, but as a whole I gave it a 6.
