Anyone else get this movie? one of the funniest of the year if you ask me. The blu transfer wasnt half bad either.

I actually didn't even know it came out. I saw the trailer a while back and thought it looked hilarious and was never expecting to see it. I don't think it received a wide release and it wasn't playing near me, or if it was it disappeared really quickly. Maybe I'll ask for it for Christmas or something...

Yeah it didnt too well at the box office. Was in one of my "art" theaters for about 3 weeks. I was lucky enough to catch it there and I ordered it on demand. One of the best dark comedies of the year and possibly in a while if you ask me. Robin Williams really did great!

watched it last night ondemand.

super dark comedy. wow, I found the scene to be extremely disturbing, almost unwatchable but Robin did a great job in it. He is great when he delivers a subdued performance like in "One Hour Photo", "Night listener", and "Final Cut".

the movie loses steam at the end but it was very interesting. really a good under the radar kinda flick. loved the slo mo Under Pressure sequence(minus Williams' junk)

I can see why it didn't do well in the movies. people were severely misled by the previews.

I remember watching the trailer thinking "that looks like it will suck", yet I enjoyed it when I finally saw it

I rented it shortly after it was released and was not that impressed. Williams did an excellent job as always, but I was just not drawn in by the story at all.

I really could have gone the rest of my life without having to see Robin's sack. LOL

Hugely underrated, Fantastic performance from Williams, One of my favourite Movies of the last year or so.
