First, let me start by saying that: "Anyone that gave this movie a rating higher than a one must have had their head buried neck deep into a garbage bag filled with the fumes from airplane glue!
This paragraph is 'somewhat' of a spoiler. You will probably realize in the first 15 minutes of the movie that the main character is just some crazy unbalanced nut. And I don't mean the intense interesting crazy like Hannibal Lecter, or Jame 'Buffalo Bill' Gumb, or Jack Torrance crazy. NO, this is just your every day mundane type of unbalanced loon that can be found lying on some curb in any major city in the country.
Do not spend any money on this movie unless you have some free time with Netflix and I'll tell you why. When you start to watch the movie you will immediately notice some of the actors: Willem Dafoe, Brad Dourif, Michael Shannon, Michael Pena, Grace Zabriskie just to name a few. And since you are familiar with their reputations, you will continue to watch this ridiculous movie because you are thinking that they would never have signed on to this project unless it had some merit. If you thought that, like we did, you would have been terribly mistaken like we were. I won't dissect it scene by scene because I'm trying to put this mess out of my memory but Almost every scene is totally ridiculous! Let me repeat in case you missed it. "Almost Every Scene Is Totally Ridiculous!" In almost Every Scene of the movie you will be telling yourself: "Wait a minute, that doesn't make any sense. That's not the way things would happen in real life." So, you will continue to watch this mess waiting for the Intellectual Deep Twist that will just 'pull it all together'. That moment never comes because there isn't one!
In my opinion, if you have an hour and a half to kill you'd be better served watching a bunch of ants building a hill.
