I'm currently watching it now (80 mins in)... What a bizarre film! I feel like it's trying to be smarter than it actually is (the main character is a woman called MIKE!!!) There's an overwhelming feeling that most of the time it's trying to be oddball for the sake of being oddball.
Mike has "blackouts" at he most inopportune of times, but it's hard to tell when she's passed out as she's playing the role so sedately.
Some horrendous accents and some of the acting is more wooden than an episode of Casualty, whilst other characters are so overacted you're wondering if they missed out on a role in Mommie Dearest!!!
It was the perfect evening film to watch after a long day at work. Mindless, occasionally gory with a paper thin, predictable plot. I loved it! The main characters absolutely in no way whatsoever were believably brothers. They didn't look alike and were completely wooden, but that was all part of the charm.
I went into watching this having heard all the awful reviews, so my expectations were pretty low. I can honestly say I thoroughly enjoyed it. Some of the dialogue was witty and amusing, the CGI was particularly fantastic and it was certainly action packed. Go in with zero expectation like me and you'll be pleasantly surprised :-).
The plot in this film is so paper thin I almost put my fingers through it. It was only Jessica Alba and Lily Rabe's names attached that made me want to watch it, but the acting is so wooden that if you look close enough you can see the actors strings!!! If you watch it pretending it's an unintentional comedy then it's much more enjoyable, but it's best you just don't watch it at all.
It was an enjoyable plod with a good mix of big names in it, but the weird mix of accents was a bit bizarre for the setting of the film.
