    EL cine es una forma de mostrarle a la audiencia cosas que normalemente en la vida real no veria, y el proposito de las tramas es hacerlas crehibles por medio de argumentos pero cuando el argumento en si es absurdo la trama resulta poco crehible y basta oir de que se trata esta p...( read more)elicula para ver que esta pelicula es absurda y es que dudo que alguna vez alguien quiera hacer un programa como el que esta aqui.

    I had a hard time believing in the mockumentary sytle of it but it really didn't matter because the characters took me in and made me not even think about it.
    It was diturbing to think that all these people would do something so dangerous for money and of course it's a movie but...( read more) it does make you wonder if people would do that in real life.
    And I defin. think they would. People do a lot stupider for no money at all.
    I love Jeffrey Dean Morgan and Katie Cassidy so they made this movie better for me but I think what made it so great was the how in love with some of the chracters. It makes you have someone to root for.
    The ending of the show was disturbing and surprising. Also heartbreaking.
    The ending of the movie was also kind of surprising and a little ironic.
    Good and thought provoking movie.

    what tv will do to get ratings, a simple story of eva mendes getting a russian roulette show on the air, and how they go about it, average, not as clever as it wants to be

    For a issuer the most important thing is the audience even risking the lives of the competitors.....
    a very underatted movie.

    What could have been a dark and biting attack on the moral degradation of society, the modern media's share of the blame for it and the increasing obsession with reality television fails to go as deep as it could. That said, it gets some points across well, the documentary style ...( read more)of shooting is a nice touch, Eva Mendes gives a surprisingly good performance as the morally bankrupt programming executive whose obsession with ratings drives her to create a show with Russian Roulette live on air, and the "game" itself has some very tense moments.

    Sounds cool from the Flixster description. Wish I could see a trailer or something...
