A Disgusting Mess

Rating: Null/10 (26 June 2013)

Oh, Jesus, where to begin. Not only does this movie offer nothing we haven't seen before, but it inflicts so much pain on the audience that by the time the end credits start rolling, you'll be wondering why you hadn't gauged out your eyeballs with rusty spoons instead.
As is widely known, the acting in this movie is just flat-out atrocious. George Clooney hasn't been this dreadful since Michael Clayton, and Vera Farmiga hasn't skewed out something this awful since The Departed. Unfortunately, neither actor is capable of humanizing their rather one- dimensional character.
As the movie drags on, audiences will realize that Reitman's rather boring and unconvincing narrative provides little to no substance. The movie ultimately is a mess, transitioning with one incoherent scene after another.
Simply put, there are just too many cuts and transitions to make this movie effective. And that's not to mention the horrendous acting and the rather lackluster script. Huge disappointment.
