Diary rather sloppily blends melodrama and spiritual uplift with crass comedy, sometimes in the same scene.

Rote melodrama.

The film may be bad-and mad-but it's not predictable.

Part female revenge flick, part Saturday Night Live skit, part courtroom drama, and part religious tent revival, this movie never congeals into anything worth watching.
The whole three-ring circus winds up in a church for a redemptive finale, but by then, Diary has committed too many sins for even the most generous soul to offer salvation.
