This was exactly not what I expected.
24 December 2013
I was very excited in 2012 when I heard about this movie and saw the cast listing. I didn't research much about the plot, simply seeing Christopher Walken in a movie named the Seven Psychopaths made my movie meter go wacko. After viewing today I realized that this was a satire of the movie I wished to see. I am not saying that it was a BAD movie by any means, however it threw my Hollywood molded brain into a bit of shock. It to me seemed like a slightly more action packed version of Get Shorty. I am not a fan of movie-about-a-movie-movies. That being said, it wasn't bad film. Just not my cup of tea. I completely get the point it was trying to make, and I enjoyed my viewing of it, but will more than likely never watch it again. I might have a childish brain, but to myself movies are about escaping reality. I'd rather see the characters that were being written about in this movie than the movie itself. Tongue in cheek has its place, and this movie did that right. I would recommend doing a bit of plot research on this before viewing.
