Ugly, brutal, nasty film, one of the worst I've ever suffered

Rating: 1/10 (4 June 2016)

Having read the reviews about this being a light-hearted comedy I suffered twenty minutes of one of the most unpleasant brutal nasty films I've ever seen before leaving the cinema and getting a refund in the grounds of the film being so different from the reviews it almost breached the trades descriptions act! I should have realised that a film nowadays with Russell Crowe is risky (whatever happened to the excellent actor we saw in Gladiator? He's now a fat, lazy inarticulate slob!). This is the first time I've been to a cinema for a while and the constant eating and phone watching of the other patrons again reminded me why a large screen HD TV and Netflix subscription at home are now essential parts of modern life.
With films like The Nice Guys I could then stop watching at no cost or hassle.. I'm sure the hipsters and teenagers will love it, I certainly didn't. I wish I could give it minus 5 stars but that's not possible unfortunately!
