    I didn't have many expectations of this film but it was surpisingly fun, coming out of nowhere. Great performances, satisfying ending, plenty of plot twists.

    This is a lot of fun. Far more than I expected. I like Simon Pegg a lot but not a fan of David Schwimmer. Recommended if you like slightly grim comedies.

    not the type of movie I would expect David S. To do. And what is up with Simon Pegg doing an American voice. If I didnt him as an actor then I would beleive he was from the states

    A gleefully dark and hilarious crime comedy that never wastes an ounce of energy. David Schwimmer and Simon Pegg are hilarious as two buddies who tries to reign in the chaos as the night goes from bad to worse. Highly recommended

    Really funny in parts, but it becomes serious near the end and it doesn't work out too well, also I don't like David Schwimmer.

    Any movie can have a twist ending, but this one is just one big twist. There is constantly new things happening to the point where the story has nothing to do with the starting story.

    Best part is that it never gets confusing. Also Simon Pegg is Awesome. Always.

    Far-fetched at times, but still an enjoyable little thriller with a few darkly comedic flashes.

    Not a bad way to waste an hour and a half.

    Give it a rental.

    Great dark comedy. I'm a fan of Simon Pegg's movies. The plot is good. I thought the ending was brilliant, Josie McBroom got what she deserved.

    It's kind of predictable in some parts but it's a funny dark comedy...plus it's got Simon Pegg in it ;) lots of killing...or attempts at killing. I liked it.

    simple plot turned nasty. simon may not do a good american accent, but he does look the part in this film, and it has some brilliant jokes aswell

    The only reason I watched this movie was for Simon Pegg. Overall it was an OK movie but nothing I havent seen before. There was a random Rammstein song in the middle of the movie wich I thought was interesting.

    A very interesting dark comedy. Simon Pegg and David Schwimmer are brilliant together. Good Directing with some unique twists.

    A hit and miss black comedy. Most of the performances are good, and there are some really funny bits.

    I still really didn't enjoy it that much. It's rare that I feel this ambivalent when I'm done watching a film.

    This was pretty cool - Pegg was funny as ever and well it was quite refreshing to see Schwimmer in a slightly dif role from his usual out and out comedies.

    Started off very strong but there were just to many random uneeded twists. I did enjoy this movie though and as always I love Simon Pegg.

    Very depressing...oyyy. I like Simon Pegg, but I hated his character. I felt bad for David Schwimmer's character.

    I enjoy dark comedies and plot lines that intertwine the lives of its charcters. This movie has a lot of spunk and its a little quirky. I like that.

    A brilliant comedy; perhaps a little dark for some but really funny. Its got a great cast and a very witty, powerful but short script, only lasting about 1.5 hours - well worth seeing id say.
