Here's the problem...

Chris Pine may have had a wonderful time making this, and it could've worked, but the movie literally doesn't move from the opening location, minus an incomprehemsible trip to a courthouse, for around 30 minutes. It reads like an excitable, one-act play. I think they were too connected to their script.


Gave up

Watch for a while and then gave up. Terrible movie. Big names. Bad script.
