This was fun. Eye-rollingly bad,, ridiculous, unbelievable, and in every way dumb, which is what made it fun.
I think that’s a good way to put it.

What I thought was particularly charming is that Brad Pitt appeared to absolutely know the above and yet was having a blast anyway.

In the end, I thought it was an American version of Snatch, the latest in a long line of copycats trying to capture lightning in a bottle like that movie did. It didn’t succeed, but it was a whole lot of fun regardless.

He's really settled into that, which has made a lot of his recent appearances pretty good

It was okay. Didn’t turn it off, wasn’t have to see.
It just felt like it was trying SO HARD to be fun and cool.

Couldn’t get into it for that reason and fast forwarded thru a lot of the movie.
