I think Murray NAILED IT as Frank and though Barr was good as Roxy, she definitely didn't steal the show here. Overall, as shocking as it was (at times), I have an appreciation for the darker stuff and can appreciate the movie for what it was... a bold satire. I think the real problem is that some viewers took it more literally than figuratively, but I guess that's always the risk of watching a satire.Nikkihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15825578716168335522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4455799919149349621.post-66209295372831734562013-03-07T06:57:04.371-08:002013-03-07T06:57:04.371-08:00I'm glad you liked this too.

That was probably my biggest gripe with the film.Brittani Burnhamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07975067259283007280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4455799919149349621.post-36264217297719124282013-03-07T00:30:57.473-08:002013-03-07T00:30:57.473-08:00I wanted to like this.

I liked the cinema bit but really I thought the idea that someone would just go around using a gun to solve problems was worse than anything he was making a stand against!ilovethatfilmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11882133059882238037noreply@blogger.com
