Wed, 26 Jul 2000 15:46:52 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author nataliek - Wendy's is not the A-typical fast food restaurant. They offer a variety of fast sandwiches & menu items. I'm trying to decide which sandwich or meal is my favorite & I'm having a hard time.

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author nataliek - This is low brow comedy at its' best. Don't rent this if you are expecting some flashback to all those John Hughes movies of the 80's.
