very boring, slow moving film

Rating: 4/10 (12 October 2015)

Going into this film I was very excited. There was a ton of hype surrounding this film and it had received great reviews. When I finally saw it I came to the conclusion that this film was decent at best. The humor did not work in my opinion and the audience in my theater seems to agree with me as there was dead silence throughout the films attempt at humor. The acting throughout seemed very wooden and I never really got the sense that Mark was in any sort of danger. He showed very little emotion throughout the film when I feel like any normal person would have had a great deal of despair. I was expecting the film to move at a much faster pace and quite frankly when it was finished I was very relieved. Overall the film was very formulaic and had nothing in it that makes it unique. I would not recommend this film even as a popcorn flick because of the extremely slow pace of the film.
