... but that doesn't mean it's bad. The negative reviews reflect people's expectations, not the quality of the show.
"Not realistic" ... says one review. Problem Is, it's based on a true story.
"Not funny" ... but it's not supposed to be. Two mostly comedic actors play the two leading roles. Their comedic chops make the representation of these two characters pretty ideal. Farrell's innocence and Rudd's slick cockiness really work for these two people.
Watch as long as you're ready to be infuriated from watching the story of an influential man take advantage of a naive person who has never learned to stand up for himself. The fact you get infuriated means Farrell and Rudd are doing a great job.
