Finally watched it just now


I had been wanting to see this for awhile. I have it an 8/10 it was a fantastic although uneven (but perhaps in a good way) mix of black humor and deeply disturbing characters and dialogue. I thought the ending was hilarious (so gross!) but so funny. The scene with the dad and the son towards the end was incredibly well done but disturbing. I even laughed at one line and then realized what I was laughing at. Also the scene with Jon Lovitz at the beginning was gold. The thing with the Russian guy wasn't that great that was one of the weaker story lines. What do you all think about this film? I imagine you either love it or detest it. It's weird, it's out there, it's *beep* up beyond belief. But I liked it a lot. I guess I'm a mess too.

I agree with pretty much everything you said. It's a 10/10 for me cause it's so honest and raw. It is very disturbing. But very well done. The last line is hands down the best

I never thought a comedy could make me feel so down and with a bad taste in my mouth.
