It was a well-paced, thrilling movie to watch. It wasn't too over-the-top and there were a few twists that were really unexpected. Also 2 of my favorite actors Giancarlo Esposito (from Revolution) and Denis O'Hare (from American Horror Story) were in it. Solid film!

It wasn't remotely thrilling and was utterly unconvincing, with a weak 130 lb bad guy routinely beating up someone twice his size. Really lame.

I enjoyed it as well, OP. I've seen it three times and would definitely watch it again.
What the poster above me doesn't get is the irony. LaRouche shouldn't really scare Chuck. But Chuck is a COWARD. That is what the movie is about. The whole movie traces how Chuck evolves from a spineless, passive coward to a person who can take control of the chaos in his life.
When his friend Winston mentions that his gun is not loaded, but that you have to project strength... this is the theme of the story and also a nod to what LaRouche is doing. No, LaRouche isn't big or muscular, i.e.... he isn't a loaded gun. But he does project power and strength .... so, the illusion that Chuck can't beat LaRouche thrives because of that.
LaRouche believes and acts on his own self-myth while Chuck acts on his (as a powerless person at the mercy of his boss, his stressful home life, LaRouche and basically everyone).
I wouldn't say it was thrilling, but it was good.
shareI enjoyed the plot very much.
The only problem I had was the casting of Jennifer A. for that role.
Otherwise, good flick ~
