starchy-2 I gotta say, yes this movie has a weird and slightly cheesy premise, but this is totally a candy movie for me! I love when movies embrace their premise and all the actors really show that they embraced it as well. Jeff bridges and Ryan Reynolds have great chemistry and I laughed a lot during their interactions. The movie was exciting and funny and interesting in this unique idea - I really enjoyed it! Not every movie needs to be this profound, dramatic 'work of art', sometimes you just want to watch a fun movie with great acting and chemistry between actors and something unique that you haven't seen before - that's exactly what you get with this one. All in all, cheesy in parts, but definitely funny and interesting with great chemistry between all the actors. Definitely recommend this one!

TonyMontana96 (Originally seen a few years ago) Ryan Reynolds and Jeff Bridges will surely want to forget this one, it's terribly incoherent, excruciatingly unfunny and just atrocious. The action looks as if it were filmed by UWE BOLL and the dialogue looks as if it were conjured up by a Neanderthal, there's not much to say, it's an atrocious film and the worst film of 2013. 0/10

alien_invasor_05 Well, i skipped this movie for a looooong time, mostly due to his IMDb score. It wont win an Oscar? Sure, few movies do. It has a cliché plot? Sure, but which modern action movie hasn't? If you know Ryan Reynolds, you know he is a funny guy, despite the movie he is in. If you know Jeff Bridges, you know the guy can act, either comedy to drama and all in between. Kevin bacon is always solid.What happens when you mix them all with a decent plot, some good action scenes and good visual effects?, This movie. Sometimes all you need is to sit down, get a couple of beers, some popcorn, either alone or with good company and have some laughs. Don't trust the rating of this movie, just watch it. Its worth it.

caveredecorator i kept waiting for a laugh or even a smile or 2 but its not hard to see why this flop lost 100 million dollars. maybe some one hoping for an action adventure sci fi would like this a little. once you settle in with your popcorn you mite as well get a crossword puzzle going too, for some type of intellectual stimulation. the actors did the best they could with the script and plot they were saddled with. my favorite part of this movie was when it was over. the special effects probably took up most of the budget but there wasn't anything that special about them and they all seemed familiar from other movies in the past. car chases and morphing have all been over done long ago. the heaven can wait theme has been over done in the past also. if there is nothing else on t.v. and you can watch it for free, give this movie a try if its raining and you need some background noise to help you fall asleep. this movie may also inspire you to renew your library card.
