utterly depressing, predictable and not funny

Rating: 3/10 (20 February 2009)

I really don't know which film people saw, but the one I just watched was one of the most depressing, gory, boring and pointless films I have ever watched. To call this film a comedy is like calling "Rear Window" a comedy. A few (few) jokes, and some strange characters do not make a comedy.
This film is about suicide, death, killing of innocent children, guilt and hopelessness. Just what people find funny about this eludes me.
The "un-PC" dialog seemed forced and unfunny.
Regarding the thriller/drama/crime aspect, I was never engaged with the characters and every plot twist could be seen 20 minutes before hand.
I can't remember the last time I was so disappointed with a film.
As a straight drama/thriller, the film put me to sleep. Combined with a total lack of laughs, I rate this a 3 and strongly advise people to ignore the trailer - it was very misleading to me.
