I thought it was very silly. Just about everything that everyone did in the whole movie just defies logic and it is extremely unbelievable. I hate movies where the characters exist in their own little world and nothing they do has consequences or effects in the outside world. I guess William H. Macy is the only cop in L.A.

Sounds like I'll wait for the DVD. I must admit my only interest in this movie was that me and a friend of mine got yelled at last year when we unkowingly walked through the background during a scene they were shooting at the Santa Monica Pier

While I think it's silly for people not to like a film because "it isn't realistic," it still wasn't that great. Average, at best, I would say.

I entered the film with low expectations, despite decent buzz, and came out of the film enjoying the crazy ride the film took the viewers on for 90 minutes.

This is one of those films where the audience gets into the film, and almost thinks it's getting to participate in what's going on on screen. We don't get shortchanged in the tension, or the action, and the film seldom drags. So moving at a brisk pace, even some of the stuff that stretches disbelief gets a pass because the film is having a lot of fun with the concept and execution of the script.

So ratchet down the expectations, and you'll have fun with this film.

I give it 3 stars or a grade of B.

Just found out that "Nipples" was played by Chantille Boudousque, who won the "Are you Hot or Not?" contest on ABC (among the females) last year.

Finally saw the entire thing today - it was pretty good. Nothing mind-blowing, but good.
