Finally a comedy I really found to be hilarious. Its been awhile. I can't get into the Apatow or Seth Rogen shit so this film was quite refreshing. Very mean spirited and politically incorrect (who knew Alexander Skarsgard could be so damn funny?? He had me dying laughing) Ditto on Pena who is always great. The writer/director (John Michael McDonagh ) is definitely talented. I dug his two previous films with Brendan Gleeson .
Its only rated at 5.9 on IMDB . da fuck? I'll give it a solid 8/10

Not a fan, but I agree on Skarsgard, especially in regards to The Diary of a Teenage Girl. I think it's a testament to him that he played a drunk cheating on his girlfriend with her minor daughter and people still took positively to his performance, considering the target audience.

Good acting, it looks great, and a lot of funny moments make this a worthwhile.

Couldn't finish it. Thought the characters were too unbearable to follow.

Loved it so much that it ended up my #4 of last year. It was interesting, hilarious and very well performed all round. Alexander SkarsgÄrd was definitely the highlight, but anyone who has seen True Blood would have been aware he has great comedic chops.

Considering it was my #4 most anticipated of last year, I was a bit letdown by how disjointed and all over the place it was tonally, but the enjoyably sardonic humor and Skarsgaard's terrifically layered performance made it worthwhile. His chemistry with Pena was also solid- I think it would've been cool if this had been made into a miniseries instead honestly.

It was good. Very crude but good and badass.
