Had to turn this off mid-way as it was literally unbearable. There are no words for how terrible the plot is. The only thing that would have made it *vaguely* interesting to watch would have been a 'will they, won't they' tension between Jessica Biel and Jake Gyllenhaal - however, they sleep together almost immediately after meeting and continue to get along excellently, meaning their storyline is tremendously boring. I'm afraid I don't have time to explain everything else that was terrible about this movie or I would be here for literally hours. Just don't watch it.

Well guys, I'm afraid that what I stated in the title is just plain truth. I watched the film (and I enjoyed it too) and then I realized that all I did was watching Jessica Biel and thinking that she was really pretty.Athletic, radiant, with a beautiful smile and a sweet voice, she did more than just stealing the scene: she monopolized my attention. And the movie seemed just an excuse to make her act and let the audience enjoy.The film, on the other hand, was not too bad: I'm sure that (unless you are 6 or this was your first film) you have already seen something like this but the Authors however strove to enrich the plot with funny and original situations and the production was excellent (great director, great actors, great staff).

very creative comedy movie that mixes past and present day showing in a particular way average people needs that are not listened or understood by the government or politicians, showing that the one thing politicians want in the whole world is take advantage of their current jobs to get what the really want (more money and power)forgetting people^s real problems (and needs; besides lying people promising something they wont do. Jake and Jessica are fantastic as usually in their performances, but the real performance came from the director, i had a great time watching the movie, and clearly had an important message after all, never lose hope, fight for what you want perhaps some great might come along.

So i was lost a couple times in the movie, where i found some scenes just kinda unnecessary, The idea of the movie is fine ,, i don't know .. i think it's all about the health insurance !! anyway ,, the movie has an okay plot but it was so predictable :PThe screenplay was just mild ,, i really expected the script to be full of comedy ,, laughs .. but it was full of naive scenes ,, For me it was like a couple of giggles and that's it .Most of the characters have embraced this dorky personality in here with sure a villain character who tries to sabotage the simple dorky people's plans ,, so it was sorta average bid to follow the "dumb and dumber" style !!As for the cast ,, i mean if it were to me i would use these WOWing set of actors to make a huge A** movie .., instead they made this average size one :Pi mean you got Jessica Biel, Jake Gyllenhaal, James Marsden, Tracy Morgan, Kurt Fuller and Bill Hader !!!!! they're all F..ing Geniuses in comedy .. and again i say the story in general was nice as a "watchable" movie but come one writers !! what the hell .. i think it's the lack of experience for Kristin Gore, its a really nice try and he's young but i think a well known director like David O. Russell should have known better.Overall,, i watched it and it's over and i was not satisfied and even a bit disappointed, cuz the trailer was like bang.. comedy here,, comedy there .. so my rating is 4.6 ;) and you can round it to 5 :D
