Had been meaning to watch this since it came out....


But was never able to catch it on. When my husband, who had seen it in theaters, found out I hadn't seen it, he bought it for me. He kept telling me how good it was and how much I'd like it. RDJ was in it, so it had to be good, right? Wrong! IMO, it was just a poorly written, crude, somewhat dark version of Planes, Trains and Automobiles. And let's face it, Zach G..(however you spell it!) is no John Candy! None of the characters were even remotely likable and by the end of the movie, RDJ was turning into Wile E. Coyote. I mean, brutal beating, fatal car crash, second fatal second crash and then gunshot wound. Seriously? This movie was a total letdown for me!

Yup! I struggled to make it to the end. My husband didn't make it, his comments? "Oh this sucks...I'm going to bed".

Thankfully we didn't pay any money to see it...
