Don't waste your time. Incredible annoyingly stupid dialogue. The story goes absolutely nowhere. I don't understand the appeal of Driver. Cheadle is lost in there somewhere. Way too much time spent on Hitler and Elvis. I guess it is adapted from a novel. Maybe it works better in print. I guess it is supposed to be surrealistic but nothing happens. I guess it is supposed to be funny but that never happens. It was painful but I kept watching but had to keep fast forwarding through long scenes that went nowhere. It just went nowhere. I thought it was going to be a type of apocalypse movie about toxic air but that went nowhere. Skip it.

But right now I can't think of.one. I was wondering who would be the first to call it a masterpiece of horror and give it a 10. It is not. Watched it last night and kept waiting for something clever to happen. What was out there?? A zombie? A monster? A spirit? A virus? Characters spit up blood now and then. My wife said "oh no, not a dog....you know what happens to dogs in these movies". Yes, the family has a dog and she was right and I don't consider that a spoiler. Edgerton's non acting style is wearing thin. Just when the movie was going absolutely nowhere with no questions answered I said "The End" and it was...roll credits. Infuriating.

Almost the entire movie is set in a dark house, very bleak. Seems like it lasted much longer than the 90 minutes we wasted on it. Sorry....it was advertised.by Netflix in an e-mail as their best psychological thrillers so we are giving them a try....win some, lose some.
