Maybe there was already a review but I just saw it today.

I have to say this is the biggest piece of terd I have seen in a long time. I left the theatre dumbfounded as to how such a hideous piece of crap made it to the big screen.

TERRIBLE writing. Plotline so thin that the movie is figured out in 10 minutes. My g/f and I had the plotline, the killer, and how the characters figure out who the killer is within 15 minutes of the movies beginning.

I NEVER walk out of movies... and man did this one test my resolve. I feel sorry for those that were watching this movie with me and my g/f. About 1/2 way through it we were just laughing our asses off at how silly this movie was. The funny lines are so NOT funny and the dramatic scenes are so predictable it is funny.

Now I am a true believer in even the worst movie having some quality that was 1/2 way decent and although this movie is so close to having NOTHING good about it I did like one scene (Mind you this is teh ONLY scene I thought was above 5 year old with his father's video camera quality).

The scene in which Paul Rodrigez is interrigating Clint Eastwood and his partner walks in and blocks the mic and they sit and have donuts. This was a scene that was supposed to be funny and actually was. The best thing I liked about it is dealing with silence and a somewhat stagnant shot is probably one of the most difficult things to pull off and I thought it worked brilliant in this one scene.

Too bad the rest of the movie licks goat ass.
