Ratings and reviews

DO NOT LET THE POSITIVE REVIEWS FOOL YOU. This was the longest, most tedious and boring movie I have ever had to sit through in my life. Do not watch this, please. It's that bad. I wish I could give it zero stars. It's not smart, it's not witty, it's not thrilling, and it's not unpredictable. It's just a dull mess. I would rather die than sit through this garbage again.

Worst plot and ridiculous advertising for every anti-depressant on the market. It was semi believable. I watched the whole thing and I'm not impressed.I would not watch it again and I would not recommend it. They also led me to believe Channing Tatum would be in the movie ... Lies. lol And this is an accurate portrayal of the true nature of the bipolar history of Mrs. Zeta-Jones. Good thing shes getting better.

I had to force myself to watch this mainly because my wife wanted to. She hated it as well. Waste of time. Fell asleep halfway through oh but guess what when I woke at the end I didnt miss anything...
