A dud

Rating: 3/10 (6 November 2016)

I'll preface this by saying that I like Crowe and Gosling's other work. This however was not worthy of their efforts. Shane black is normally a good writer but this fell flat for me. I admit that I did laugh a few times but the rest of the time I found myself scratching my head at the nonsensical plot. Nothing really made sense and there was no cohesiveness to any of the scenes. They all just seemed to run together with no sign of editing or pace. The 13 year old daughter was shoehorned into nearly every scene and made the movie almost unbearable given her character's inconsistency in certain scenes. When I watch a movie I require two things; to be entertained and to care about the characters. Both of these criteria were not met. Spend your two hours doing something else folks.
