TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

Sarita Rafferty There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

jcjs333 This series could have been something or maybe not. So many American series have 'drugs and alcohol' stuck folks trying to not drink or whatever. 'Rescue' seems to have started it all. People making money off of the Alcoholics Anonymous name. I suppose the producers think there are enough drunks and drug users out there that they can make money off of them. However, the goings-on are so trite and the folks aren't familiar with AA. Will gets on his knees 'asking for help with his 'DEFAULTS OF CHARACTER'. Poor writing by someone who doesn't know what they are talking about. The slightest familiarity with AA or people in AA know it's 'DEFECTS OF CHARACTER'. 'Defaults' of character is pretty funny though. We are born with 'default' characters like 'original sin', eh' The acting is OK but all is samo samo. Lying, lying and more lying. All the guys do is commit lies of commission and lies of omission (the worst lies of all). They are irresponsible liars wandering around not knowing what they are doing half the time. George Basil as 'Cooler' is a cool , likable character. The women don't seem to have any 'defaults of character', just the guys. I liked the first season but, even, it got old. You could watch 2 episodes and see all the seasons. Flaked got to be offensive in it's ignorance of sobriety, AA and that whole community. I think mediocre producers and writers just wanted to see how much money they can make by jumping on the 'addiction' band wagon where there has been a lot of money to be made but it's getting so old. The show 'drags' samo samo. The reviews seem to be in favor of this. I'm guessing mostly from 'social media' folks. Instead of seeing Chip as any hero or martyr i see him as grossly self centered addicted to lying which most addicts are. Their drug isn't their substance but a side effect they are liars. If ya notice , i think 'Chip' says 'i'm sorry' 100 times during the series. Instead of saying 'i'm sorry' , which is meaningless to those saying it and means the opposite , BE SORRY by actions. Years ago a woman, to my denial, pointed out to me 'take a look at how many times you say 'i'm sorry'. A good indicator of an irresponsible liar is a person who is addicted to saying i'm sorry. Chip isn't, wasn't sorry. He's a cry baby.

kynick2 I would have preferred...I even expected a little bit of Gob Bluth but Chip is cool in all his flawed-ness. I like the show, it feels like a refreshing slice of real life starring real people. Bits and pieces of the show remind me of my friends and I at various points in our lives. I love the fact that nothing is rushed (relationships) Now on to the real star of the show...The soundtrack. Every single episode I realize how fortunate I am to discover new music and new artists. I spent so much of the show looking up the songs I heard. Not since Gossip Girl have a watched a show with so much good music.

DerrrrDerp and didn't drink the Koolaide or buy into it wholesale, might appreciate this show. It's dark, dry and real. There's always "that guy" (many of them) who talk the program and really "work it" whether they are still drinking or not. They also love to work the 13th step, which consists of preying on younger and vulnerable women new to the program. They are indeed flakes. AA is full of them. They talk love and acceptance but in my experience, ego stroking, controlling their sponsees, and bragging is the real name of the game. I don't begrudge the community many of these folks get at AA. Most of them need serious psychological help they can't afford. They do get help but the program isn't entirely healthy. World wide membership is way down, their funds are way down. Chip is embodies this whole feeling for me. I even knew a guy named Chip in AA!

diamandia Excellent, engaging first season. I can not wait for Season 2. I sat and watched the entire first season; back to back episodes. I have never done this with any show. It displays Will Arnett's power as a writer, producer and actor. This isn't an expected comedic performance. The character development is deep rooted with real life moral issues. The comedy is dry and masked within the everyday dialogue. He manages to make a very dark, self-centered person desirable. Overall the show has great character writing across the board. The soundtrack is brilliant. This needs to be renewed with more seasons, it is truly fantastic.
