What a waste of my time!!!
if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.
I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
I thought this movie was loads of fun, though seeing the reviews I guess it's not for people who don't enjoy low-key send-ups of the entertainment business. This movie is like seeing all those situations and people that are usually stuck in here and there in a big action flick (or The Simpsons) to get in a slam to Hollywood culture, all strung together, but instead of being tongue-in-cheek, relentlessly sincere. Maybe the bad reviews reflect that it hasn't attracted its audience because of the way they marketed it -- they should be trying to get a Woody Allen crowd, perhaps? The cast is made up of extremely talented comedy stars and well-known character actors, each one bigger than the last, who play their characters so low-key and real. So much so, that the little ironies don't seem set up, they seem accidental like they should be but never are in comedy films. And a big surprise to me was how entertaining Margaret Cho was, as I'm not a huge fan of her stand-up.
I actually suffered through 10 minutes of this thinking that it might get better.... Please do yourself a favor, and don't bother watching this.Unless you enjoy intolerably bad movies, your time is better spent anywhere else. And I do mean ANYWHERE.It is hard to believe that any of these actors who participated in this movie did not get banned from the business permanently. It certainly is a black mark on their careers in my opinion.So, what was wrong with this movie? Poor Acting. Bad Jokes. Bad Plot.What is good about this movie? You don't have to watch it.
An American trying to make an alternative comedy with more sophisticated humor. ... and that's where it went wrong. A fine idea to do something different with comedy ended up in a nightmare. Can't blame him for trying something fresh though.Looks like the director hit the ball totally wrong here so I think he'd better stick to brainless Hollywood comedy. It's even better to have some lame old jokes than. Watched the movie with six people who love love all kinds of comedy from Hollywood to British comedy, from satire to black comedy. This film But after 50 min we just stopped watching in order not to lose our good mood..... too bad
It's nice to have a breath of fresh air in the comedy realm, and this film is just that. It combines so many techniques of film-production. The story centralizes around 2 blue-collar workers who decide to rob a grocery store for the Hell of it. Great acting. A lot of different turns and twists you'd never predict. Overall, a good laugh if you're in the mood for something original.
