'The Joneses': Welcome to the dullfest!!!



This movie is a pure waste of time! Duchovny & Moore have no chemistry at all! The story have no interest! All the actors/actresses are wasted in their roles!
Ben Hollingsworth as Mick is the only one to put a little bit of truth in his role!!! I'm happy than I don't waste any money on that movie... only my precious time!!!

No problem with an opinion but speak for yourself. I just watched it for the third time and still like it. It's a very snobby, sad overview of just what people will do and have done to try to look good and keep up with nothing but debt, crumbling families and filled landfills to show for it.

Why couldn't they just make a normal movie, with a good storyline?? Why the dumb selling twist? It was weird there was no explantation of why they were selling and what the reward was? Plus they should've focused more on the highschool kids and told more how they got into the biz. Just wasted almost 2 hours for nothing. Oh well.

ShilohJoliePitt, I think you should stick to action adventures and horror flicks.

Dumb selling twist? The whole point of the movie is to show people selling products.

reply

The reason this movie was interesting and pretty much a dark satire was because of the "selling twist". Without it this movie would offer nothing.

I can't disagree more.
It seems you're one of those people who think a movie can only be good if it has explosions in it ... In other words. A Michael Bay fan.

I thought it was a great idea for a film, it reflected society's obsession with jealousy and consumerism in a really great light. David and Demi were great together and even Amber Heard was so good.

Hollingsworth and his storyline should've been explored further.

I thought David and Demi has good chemistry and made a good looking couple.
