Dumb. Which from my experience means you'll all love it. 

The message is: If you're not shooting up and beating down everyone in your office, you're not doing anything with your life. Probably some noob director that finally made it big and is trying to make some point about a grudge he has against the world. Too bad he wasn't smart enough to hire a better composer though.

Ah, I figured it would be something along those lines.  Well, it was either this for me or Hancock this afternoon.  I chose Hancock.  Instead of taking over your thread about my thoughts on that, just know I began a thread about it.  Needless to say, from your review of this film and from my experience with Hancock, seemed like a winless situation for me with either movie.  I guess I'll wait for this one on dvd via redbox rental.  Thanks for the advice.

not interested in this movie.

not a fan of Angelina Jolie.

Dazzy:

not a fan of Angelina Jolie.

I'm a fan, but not because of half of her work in film.

In all seriousness, I do respect her humanitarian efforts.  It far surpasses the old Angelina Jolie where she had sex with Billy Bob Thorton in a limo before arriving to the Academy Awards...and when she wore his blood around her neck.  That Angelina was sort of wierd.  Sexy, but wierd.  Glad she's out of that phase and into the humanitarian/motherhood/normal actress phase. 

Anyway, to stay on topic, as I mentioned before, I doubt I'll see this movie in the theaters.  It looks like a redbox rental for me.  Nothing beats a $1 rental, especially if the movie isn't all that good as I'm expecting this one to be.

I actually thought the movie was incredible and I will definitely be getting it on blu-ray. Well-cast, well-done and a lot of twists and turns along the way as well.
