Man, what a bore this is. The situation's pretty simple, so the plot won't keep you involved, nor will you care much about the characters. Josh Brolin threatens to be threatening but winds up as a one-dimensional dullard, and the lure of ScarJo is all tease, no pay-off. George looks like he's having fun but wasn't afforded enough screen time to go at anything above a mild trot. It gets two stars for Channing Tatum's dance scene - one star per foot. See if you can find that on YouTube so you can save yourself the chore of wading through the first 40-odd minutes.

Pour all that talent a star studded cameos into a bucket and you get to watch a bucket - nothing more, nothing less. Joel and Ethan phoned this one in and with the exception of showing the versatility of the tour de force - it just rambles and rambles and rambles.

Disappointed with this movie, all the best bits were in the trailer. Found it downright tedious at times, my mind kept wandering. Didn't laugh at all, might have smiled a couple of times.
