I am so tired of films showcasing otherwise successful people (men in particular) who are so damned weak emotionally. Here you have the classic old pal comes back after years (army buddy, college roomie, etc.) and the old plot to come on man, let's live a little - whatever happened to that wild man I knew, etc.?
Why would this guy fall for this? The only clue given is that his wife apparently feels the need to go off on "girls' retreats"????? So, hey, why not? Stupid. Stupid. Stupid. Worse than a teen camp slasher movie where you hope and pray the little idiots get slaughtered.
If I say I want to go home, then I am going home. If I say I have had enough, then I have had enough. Period. Locked doors, no phone reception, torture(?) and still you stick around?
You come home to find your house has been completely redone: where the hell was your wife? You have just "escaped" this madness and yet you punk out when you find your torturer in your tub in a bubble bath and you STILL don't throw him out!
Blackmail? On what basis?
I don't know. By the end I thought it was supposed to mock Tom Cruise and the whole Scientology thing. But then, they come in with the products angle, which also made no sense whatsoever. Why anyone would need to go through that to sell laundry soap is beyond me.
Again, another weak dude film. Yuk.
