If you love Rambo, Eddie Murphy movies or the like, then you will probably not appreciate this film. If you like art, this one is for you. Finally a movie that falls under the "fine arts" category.
Pros: Plot
Cons: None

Annoying, patheticaly boring and older hipsters (55+) seem to dig it but not by that much. Please don't waste your money, don't even rent this thing when it comes out just go see something else. Why certain critics liked this I know not, they must be close with the director, it was a real bad college production.
Pros: can't think of a single one
Cons: can't believe people pay to see this
