The dialogue is crap. All of the characters (with maybe the exception of the lead) are completely two-dimensional.

Don't get me wrong, I hate insurance companies as much as most people, but this film is just terrible. Ack. I guess it's worth the cost of renting it (we netflix'd it), but not much more. Glad I didn't go see it in the theater.

Well, everyone else liked it at least. :D

I think it's just the dialogue that I hate. Oh well.

Lets put it this way... With half the crap that hollywood puts out now, its nice to finally see a movie with a decent story to it every now and then.

1 hour, 15 minutes. Everyone in the house picked up their laptops and started working about 45min into it -- it's decent as a background film, but not a movie I could sit down and watch, or recommend. Looks like the dialogue just didn't connect with me.

*POTENTIAL SPOILER ALERT*

It's pretty good until the "SOCIALISM, SOCIALISM, SOCIALISM!" ending. I don't know why they think we need to be beaten over the head with the moral of the film...

Hehe. It just got interesting, after I complained. The dialogue still sucks though. :D
