A pleasant enough movie, though it largely falls flat as a blockbuster comedy. The situational humor is there and there are some great lines, but the plot and characters were too dark for a lot of the absurdist humor to get serious laughs. In many parts the movie had an almost horroresq cabin fever atmosphere, which made it hard to appreciate other elements. That being said, this seemed to be deliberate and the writing was great.
