    Very SLOW

    I had high hopes with the cast. Thought maybe all the reviewers were wrong. They weren't. This movie is crap. Boring and slow. I'm sure all the actors are regretting this one.

    Unhappy

    I wasted 15 minutes of my life on this abortion of a movie. Now I can't even trust my wife any more since she is the one who chose it. Thanks Bob Saget.

    Maybe the worst movie I've ever seen

    I couldn't even get through half of this movie. The acting is listless, the storyline is going nowhere, the writing is terrible. So many awkward silences and gestures... just atrocious.

    I want my $2 back

    I saw this advertised on the redbox. It looked like it would be funny. It is one of the worst movies I have ever seen. Nothing was funny or even interesting. It was odd and boring. I am not sure what it was supposed to accomplish other than to waste $2.

    Yikes, so much talent & few laughs

    It's a shame when an excellent cast gets together and produce a film outside mainstream "Super Hero" Hollywood. But this is torture in many ways (too much joking about serious drug addicts) to see the inane dialogue spoken by true comic geniuses. I applaud Redbox for trying films such as "Benjamin," and hopefully better exclusives in the future. This one just misses the target completely.
