“Disappointing...sad!!”
I love Bill Murray. This so called ‘artistic account’ is a total injustice to this brilliant entertainer. Very disappointing. Don’t waste your money. It’s a flop!
“Waste of money.”
Bought it for a friend who was a Bill Murray fan.
We said he's using it to keep his workbench level.
