WTF?

the ending made no sense at all...all these idiots were in on a prank to make the guy realize what he had in life? and they were all in on it? unreal and ridiculous...i watched the whole thing though, so i guess it means it does have its moments, however, the ending was the most pathetic attempt at a twist ive ever seen.

and to those who claim this is like crank....youre wrong. maybe a semi similar story...a guy racing against time to get an antidote blah blah blah...crank was action packed to the nines...this movie isnt.

It was more like a rip-off of "The Game".

While watching this movie i came to the realization that it was a mixture The Game with Michael Douglas and Crank. In The Game Michael douglas is a rich man who's brother buys him the preasant of a Game. in which they turn his life upside down and run him ragged with out him knowing that he was in a game. at the end his whole family and friends were waiting to congratulate him and wish him a happy birthday. So apparently in crank he gets poisoned and has to do something to get the antidote before a specific time limit elapses. I havent seen crank. but this movie screamed the game to me

Not a ripoff of Crank except in perhaps the pacing of the movie.. probably more like a ripoff of DOA (either version)

Crank was different in that they didn't care if he died or not, and it was merely up to him to stay alive, DOA was a guy trying to find out who poisoned him to get the antidote with a limited time to find it.
