Holy shit… I really didn’t know what I was expecting. I’ve seen Serial Mom and I loved it, but I had no expectations or anything going into this. I’m not even halfway through it and I’m laughing my ass off. Good stuff

I’ve never posted on here but I’ve watched so many of these movies, awesome site. I’ve read some of the reviews, and I’m glad to see people exercising their freedom of speech, no matter how unfunny and stupid it makes you look. I mean, the actual reviews are not what I’m talking about and some change my perspective on the film I just watched, but when you have “Robert ButtFister” talking about politics or whatever nonsensical crap I tune out a bit.
