For some reason over the years when i have read about this script/movie i always got the impression it was more in a theme of Bad Santa where the Beaver really is quite shocking with what it says. After seeing the trailer this looks like some Penny Marshall rubbish. I have not seen a trailer as dull as this one in some time now. This movie will die a painful death at theaters.

aww...come on. Can't judge a book by the cover, right?

Plus, TMC says it's suppose to be a brilliant film! :rolleyes:

That beaver sounds like Ray Winstone.

I just saw this. I didn't watch the trailer so i had little idea what this was about. From the synopsis it sounded like a dark comedy. It seemed to start that way but as the film continues along, it seemed less funny and more disturbing. The part where
Spoiler:
Mels Character cuts his hand off
I could see coming a mile away.

Not his best performance nor was Jodies. But overall i'd say it's worth a rental just to see Mel "act" batshit crazy.
