Reviews

I don't know why I keep going to see movies that have been nominated for awards. They are ALWAYS awful! What are these stupid academy people awarding - the most absurd storyline ever? I wanted to leave the movie many times but figured my friend, who had selected to see this movie, would have had a different opinion. Later I learned she wanted to leave too! I really have no clue why such amazing actors like Naomi Watts, Ed Norton, Emma Stone, etc would take this role. I can see Michael Keaton taking it - he hasn't done much in the last decade! The only positive thing I can say is I got to see Ed Norton naked (or maybe his body double). Either way, that was the highlight!

I don't know what is wrong with the previous reviewer of this movie but apparently he/she is blind, deaf or was reading a book during this movie. It is simply awful. And by the way, the synopsis on this site isn't even close to being correct. The plot is a guy (Dennis Quaid) who is trying to pitch his many ridiculous movie ideas to a studio exec (Greg Kinnear). As Quaid is apparently describing them to Kinnear, a clip of the movie is shown to the audience. The ideas are completely absurd, uninspired and not at all funny in any way. It's a shame that all these top-name actors are so desperate for money to make such a film. Bigger shame is they won't get a dime! Save your money and your valuable time and don't see this movie!
