After finishing it it was a decent movie but Definitly had an odd vibe to it

The rock was without a doubt the highlight

He's a very capable actor. Would love to see him in a real role

Watched it on Amazon prime last night and totally agree that it was weird, too long but overall somewhat enjoyable

Stopped watching halfway through.....realized I wasn't laughing at all at what was supposed to be a comedy.

I honestly could not finish this movie. It was terrible.

I thought Zoolander was weird the first time through, so that's never stopped me from watching a movie since (to varying degrees of success).

Had to bump this, just finished on Amazon Prime. Didn't even know it was a Michael Bay movie until the credits rolled. Definitely my favorite Bay movie (which isn't saying much I know)

Reminded me of Very Bad Things. Very morbidly funny. Was not expecting that at all

i thought so too, what with it being a Michael Bay movie starring The Rock.

But it's not at all what you think it is. This is how you do dark comedy. If you liked Very Bad Things you would definitely like this

Such a strange film, but I honestly think it's also one of Bay's most direct and honest films (despite the departure from the real tale).

Yes, very weird. I liked it a lot, it's pretty unconventional.

If this movie is made by anyone but Bay, there would be a ridiculous amount of acclaim for it.
