Article fails WP:SIGCOV, WP:NFO and WP:NFSOURCES. I did a WP:BEFORE and found no reviews on Rotten Tomatoes and only newspaper listings on Newspapers.com. I found no suitable RS coverage enough to pass WP:NEXIST; I find it surprising and unusual I found no significant coverage considering that the film was distributed by MGM/UA.

- Keep. It took some serious digging, but I managed to find coverage for the film. It certainly wasn't easy, as there were legit hundreds of junk hits for every one actual usable source. And that's just trying with Newspapers.com! The reviews for this are kind of funny in that when they're negative, they tended to be pretty candid. They don't beat the ones for Grumpy Cat's Worst Christmas Ever, but those are hard to beat for sheer humor value. ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (｡◕‿◕｡) 13:52, 3 July 2022 (UTC)
- Excellent work to User:ReaderofthePack. I think the lesson to be learned is that I shouldn’t give up too soon when doing a WP:BEFORE search. In my defense, I always nominate out of good faith because my goal is to help the project, not hurt it. Once again, ReaderofthePack I thank you for your excellent work and improvements to the article; I speedy withdraw this nomination. The Film Creator (talk) 16:01, 3 July 2022 (UTC)
- No worries! In my interactions you are always fair and to be honest, I can completely understand how you didn't find anything. Searching for this one was incredibly tough! Don't beat yourself up over it! ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (｡◕‿◕｡) 16:49, 3 July 2022 (UTC)
