So much potential...

Rating: 2/10 (23 April 2007)

This movie had so much potential, so much star power; the directing, the casting: everything. But I hated it. Why? It was so incredibly dirty. Every other word is f**k this or c**t that. Jack Nicholson's character owns pornographic theaters, the sex is over the top, and the blood is a little excessive. I have a hard time believing this story because everything is just so over the top. There's just no way that any real people can be just so twisted as this--and here it is, on my TV! Mostly the language bothered me. I think I could have gotten over the rest of the shortcomings if it wasn't for the language. I just felt so dirty for having witnessed such a film--I actually shut it off. And for those of you who think I just can't handle it: I'm a 21-year-old guy who loves action movies.
