I used to like those puzzles
by SnoopyStyle2023-07-20
5/10

"Bruce Keene and girlfriend Penny Wilton work in the advertising department in the Beyers cereal company. They come up with a 30 week promotion with a $100k first prize and $200k in total. The game is solving a weekly rebus puzzle. Bruce returns to the bottle and gets lost in the fame of the successful contest. The movie needs to show more of the puzzles. People have fun with that. I remember TV shows that do that type of guessing game. I liked those. The premise is pretty stupid like Bruce is the only one in the world who could create those puzzles. A better premise would be somebody stealing..."
