A travesty of a sham of a mockery of a farce...

...easily the worst piece of *beep* I've ever seen. This is worse than steaming cra.p like "Manos: the Hands of Fate" because of its budget, cast, and director...all of which *should* have actually produced something at least passable but managed to all collectively outdo themselves and produce something truly horrific. This is so bad it makes my previous "worst movie of all time" - Catwoman - look like Citizen Kane. Jesus Effing Christ...what the hell happened McTiernan?

Calm down!

Everybody knows that.

But it's still entertaining crap. :D

It really wasn't all that bad. I gave it a "5."

They had all the pieces of a good movie but they just seemed to put them all together wrong.

For example, the owners were making a ton of money from people wagering on legitimate games, but then they were more than willing to turn the game into a farce like professional wrestling for higher ratings.

Do you know anyone that bets on the outcome of professional wrestling? No. Because everyone knows that it is rigged.

The movie was just a platform for a string of violent scenes. The acting and the script were weak.
