just watch it!
Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.
Blending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction
It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
One of those movies that have something about them that fascinates, even if they're so off that you want to start to harm yourself... in a way that costs money.The main character actor Peter Magnusson looks like an optimal casting choice. He got me to find this clumsy football player moron somewhat likable. At least sort of. Because when he opens his mouth and his driving motive comes into rolling this movie hits the post like OMG. You better get used to hold your breath, scratch your head and be prepared to visit an even deeper section of Ding-dong land. Özz Nûjen walks in and now you know for sure that this story can't save itself anymore. And then something happens that actually was quite cute. Raped your logic, but otherwise neat. Advice: Don't win on the lottery while watching this film. You might decide to watch it a ten thousand times, just for the heck of it.
