Goofs

Near the beginning of the movie, when Joe's friend is warning him about Fear, Inc, he mentions that his female boss signed up for it and said she was messed up "and hasn't been to work since". But he also says he heard that the company physically and maybe mentally abuses you. But Spolier Alert, if the group ends up killing you, how does anyone hear reviews about them?

Quotes

Joe Foster: The point is that this... this is a game. And out there, that's our best chance to win. Right now, in here, I mean, we're missing everything. Either way, we're white, we're rich. The cops are gonna be here any second.

User Reviews

What's that stink? It's "Fear, Inc."

Pretty lame. Kept waiting for this oddball horror/thriller/comedy hybrid (woulda helped to pick a genre already) to fully engage and take off. But "Fear, Inc." simply stayed stuck in a virtual holding pattern up to and including it's pointless and gruesome conclusion.

There are a few occasions where you may well find yourself going "Hey, THAT guy" and one particularly notable instance during the movie's opening sequence where you'll almost assuredly be like, "THIS chick is in this?". Yet alas, and most unfortunately, we're saddled with main characters with whom we are inspired to neither sympathize with nor care about.

The only fear here lies in the potentiality that you will choose not to heed fair warning and subject yourself to the feckless and feeble "Fear, Inc.".
