No homo, but that's cool. Wouldn't want to have to stay all messy.

And I'm gonna film this...for posterity.

Doesn't look very good at all.

I'm actually curious, if only because it's a smaller scale film for Bay (his choice) and to see how he does comedy.

Impediment
This looks absolutely atrocious.

His comic relief in The Rock, Bad Boys, and Transformers films was utter shit. And now he's gonna have a whole film of it? Dear God.... messed

So this is a comedy about the true story of 3 people who kidnapped, tortured and murdered several people. While the victims families are still alive.

no expression

Wow, you know Bay has always been jokingly offensive but I think this time he may have crossed the line into actually being a ****ing bastard.

Ascendancy
Guess this kind of died. Saw it tonight.

It was enjoyable enough. Bay kind of makes fun of his own over the top style quite a bit. Bit of controversy about the film, but I promise you won't feel sorry for any of the main characters. Pretty good job of showing how dumb and how twisted they were. Have to agree with reviews that say the changing around of the narration was a little strange at times and feels like it could have been done better.

I'd give it a 7/10. A little longer than it needed to be, but I don't think Bay likes clocking in at anything under two hours.

Kazenji
So its a good Bay movie.

Ascendancy
Guess you could put it that way.

the ninjak
I'm really locking forward to this.

It looks like a dumb man's Fear and Loathing. Which can only be be good in its own way.

Ascendancy
Again, definitely watchable, and although a little longer than it needed to be I felt that I got my money's worth.

Kazenji
^ Pretty much agree about your review on page 1

Maybe the whole comedy side of things is how the 3 people involved saw it as.
