A friend went to a sneak peek, he said he had very limited expectations for it going in and ended up giving it a 10/10. Anyone else gonna watch this? Or already did?

    I have this feeling it could be like the first Bad Boys just a different angle from the so called "bad guys perspective".

    Real ? , I walked out on this today.

    Wackest crime movie I've seen so far. At times I thought it was suppose to be funny, but nothing made me laugh. Then I thought it was suppose to be drama, but they kept doing dumb ? I couldn't take seriously. I sat in the theater and actually had enough time to realize that I had other ? I could be doing. Acting was solid, but I just lost interest in the story bout halfway through. I'd say the Rock was the most stand out of the movie, but everything else was forgettable.

    Wasn't impressed, wasn't entertained, didn't enjoy. The Raising Cane's combo I got once I left out was more exciting.

    I was thinking the same, but from the trailer. I seen the trailer and thought it was a comedy, then seen it was based on some true story, but I wasn't seeing much of a plot or seriousness in the trailer. reviews have been kinda negative too.

    so far from the truth.....


    most people didn't even realize this was a true story AND from the previews it was an all comedy type movie with some violence. but it was mostly violence with a bit of comedy. the last 40 mins was nothing but killing.

    you can't sell a movie through a preview saying it was a true story of
    3 dumb bodybuilders who fail at kidnapping a rich man and accidentally killing 2 other people for no reason..... they sold this movie off the comedy IN the true story.

    the movie was ok for me, it did drag too long, the last 45 mins could of been the meat of the movie.

    it is something i have noticed in movies the last 2-3 years, movies are alot longer that they use to be. almost most movies go 2 hours now.

    Yeah movies are a lot longer. I don't mind it when it's great movies like Tarantion's or Nolan's, but some are honestly way too long. Usually comedies that are over 2 hours end up falling off for that last 20-25% of the movie.

    the documentary is better than the movie if you just want to know about the true story.

    the dude who played the rock's character (for the most part) snitched on the other two and only got 15 year, which he only did 7. for all that ? he got off easy.

    Very random things in this movie...little better than I though....too long in my opinion also. The Rock isn't too shabby as an actor. I liked when he was grilling the hands outside the building and it like "no, you have to grill these outside...there was too much smoke inside" lol
