Back of the box says “Medicine Man delivers unmatched entertainment with its spectacular mix of breathtaking scenery, captivating performances and thrilling nonstop excitement”. What a load of bologna

Watched it for my entomology class. Had that mindset the entire time and it didn’t mention anything having to do with my assignment until there were like 15 mins left. Snoozefest.
