Nothing about this film enticed me to watch it. Not the trailers, not the marketing, not even the buzz surrounding it as being a spectacular trainwreck... But I was bored. A few friends asked if I would join in. I said, "what the hell..."... And three hours later (transportation to the film is included in that time estimate) the credits rolled and I felt about the same as when I went in.

In short. The movie is a trainwreck. But it's not interesting enough to survive on that merit even. The actors try their damnedest and maybe at some time in history there was a great story here. There are remnants of interesting bits. But no threads are pulled on to get at any meat. Stuff happens and suddenly there's a climactic fight and then it's over.

Sony has to do something about their popcorn film division. Sure they once in a while release some David Fincher thing but noone up there seems to have no idea what to do when they have potential. And the Spiderman debacle has been like a dying horse they've been prodding for decades now in hopes of getting something out of. And now they're trying to launch a franchise of Spiderman villains, but by contract they cannot use spiderman?

In the end, Sony makes awesome hardware. But whenever I see its logo on a film I flinch... Because clearly there's noone steering that ship. Just a bunch of execs blindly turning the wheel...

Some people seem to enjoy the butchered humor present here. But I just wanted the film to end.

Btw...

From the moment he Brock gets fired and dumped to the end of the film... Was that really all one long night or was that just how it was portrayed. ???
