Just Awful
28 December 2011 | by topbearauSee all my reviews

For the first time ever I have been forced to write a review about a movie, because I don't want everyone to spend money of this diabolical piece of work.

What a waste of a superb cast. There is not ONE redeeming feature of this movie. Total waste of my time just to get to the theatre to watch it. I was gone after an excruciating 40 minutes. Don't let the big names fool you. They are ALL way off the mark, but that is to be expected with such a bad script and, oh God, where was the director?.

A big red light and a solid warning..give this a huge miss.If it was free- to-air I'd still change channel.
