Pretty revolting
30 September 2013
There's quite a few note-worthy things about this film. The performances are pretty decent, Affleck in particular. It's never boring. But I just cannot stand by this film. It takes a LOT for me to be disgusted and angered by a film, and in that respect this film really did its job. Those few instances of violence, when it's shown on screen, is just too much. I really hated the director's choice to have so much of it shown, and in that respect, despite it not being all that bad really, I take major points off. Jessica Alba is pretty awful, as expected, and Kate Hudson very effective. Alba's character is also one of the most detestable characters in quite a while, just for what she allows.
