Actors just taking a pay check....


Cusak and Billy Bob..........I will never go see a movie you are in anymore without looking into the ratings of the film.....it's obvious you both sold out for a paycheck to work on this piece of dung........

Usually I like movies that Cusak is in. This one was definately an exception. I walked out after about 45 minutes.........maybe longer......seemed like an eternity......

The funny thing is I think if I had seen this when it came out I would have liked it more, it actualyl got good reviews, and in the middle of holiday season a bitter film like this would have been a breath of fresh air, I think because I saw it today and was just looking for a comedy, I was let down, I felt like the reviews and trailers had misrepresented the film...

I think that's a good description of this film. Talk about phoning it in. I did like the cinematography and the lighting though...

It was extremely well done in all facets. However, expectations can influence how you receive a film. IF you wanted comedy, this certainly wouldn't deliver. Funny at times, but in no way a "comedy."

^This. Nearly perfect for what it is, IMO. On my annual holiday film rotation going on four years now. I think it's yet another film that fell victim to commercial misrepresentation at its time of release.
