For all the hype it got I was expecting a lot more!

An Exercise In Nonsense

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

There are some spoilers here.The first 45 minutes or so of this movie show much promise. Two plastic, wannabe bad boys owe $12,000 to a mysterious black dude and invent a clever scam in order to raise the cash. They decide to set up a Doctor (yes, the English guy from Cheers) with a woman and film them having sex. They then blackmail the English guy from Cheers and warn him that they'll show the video to his wife unless he hands over a very large sum of money (at least $12,000 for starters).Things appear to be going reasonably well for the two bad-guys as they hold the English guy from Cheers hostage at his house and attempt to withdraw the money from his bank account. But then, in a very well-staged scene, the English guy from Cheers is revealed in a totally different light. This twist in itself is very clever and is revealed in a very casual manner which takes one by surprise. But from this promising plot development the movie then subsides into unintentional hilarity. Everybody ends up trying to double-cross everyone else, and, most ridiculously of all, the mysterious black dude that I mentioned, to whom the $12,000 was originally owed, is revealed as a Snoop-Doggy lookalike with a zimmer frame (I kid you not).There is a final shoot-out which is handled very badly by the directors and the impression one gets is that the scriptwriter had a very good idea, with a clever twist, but just didn't have a clue about how to expand this to a more sensible conclusion. 4/10

I saw this film about a month ago, and I have to say it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. The reason I seen it in the first place was because I found out that Justin Pierce (R.I.P) was in it, and I haven't seen any of his other films apart from Kids, and Next Friday. And as usual he gave a great performance, and so did the rest of the cast.The story wasn't particularly good but the way the cast acted they made the film watchable. So I would suggest if you want a film that is fun and not to be taken that seriously, than choose this you might even like it.

This is a genius film. The Baluzy brothers rival the Coens in this fast paced, intellegent thriller. Each twist and turn will shock you, and it even throws in a little black comedy in the mix. A must see. Rent it, or buy it, it could easily be on the top 250.

I loved Pulp Fiction, I loved Fight Club, and while the writer/directors, the Baluzy brothers have seen those films, they do not belong behind the camera.The plot is a gang of young kids try to black mail a crazy doctor (John Roos from Cheers). Surprise!, there are double crosses and a lot people are shot. There is a lot of blood and dead bodies, but it is not scary or funny -just sad. Close ups of crack pipe use, sex with dead bodies, dogs tied to car bumpers (remember NatLamp's Vacation?) and donut eating cops.It not bad enough to be funny, with one small exception, there is a ninja gang chasing them. Their leader uses a walker and when the young Ninja kicks the starts kick he hurts himself because "Dude, you have to stretch first". The only other highlight is Sascha Knopf looks great in a bikini.Please avoid this.
