The premise is great for sure. Perfect for a comedy. Unfortunately nobody bothered to write one. Franco absolutely is far too obnoxious in this.

The premise would make a great political black comedy like Dr. Strangelove. Rogen and Franco are no Kubrick or Sellers though.

I must have been the only one who enjoyed the obnoxious Franco in this. Either 22 Jumpstreet or this was the funniest movies ive seen all year. Everybody watching it with me was laughing their asses off.

You don't like that brown sugah?

There was some funny stuff but definitely not up to pay with Superbad, This is the End etc. I really wish most movies were released this way. Loved that it only cost me $5.99. Glad I didn't buy it because I was debating that.

I still wonder how much of this shit was creative marketing, knowing they had a turd on their hands (box-office wise, not a comment on the movie's quality...).

Sony is not that smart.

They floated the idea of an "Aunt Mae" Spider-Man film just to keep the rights

You can watch the full movie online. Dont remember the site name but it shouldnt be hard to find.

Now on Netflix

Watched it last night. It was neither as bad as I thought it would be nor anywhere near as good as it could have been.

I didn't find Franco's character as obnoxious whatsoever. He was a schlocky TV host, and surprisingly, I thought he was good. Rogen, on the other hand, was the same as always. He was a little reserved in some scenes but overall, I didn't see the character, just Seth.

Overall, it was a missed opportunity, IMO.

This.

I think the James Franco we see in this movie is probably very close to his real self~

One of the dumbest movies I have seen this decade. And I have seen some really dumb movies.

I wanna watch it because of the hype...but im so sick of Seth Rogen. He stole his stupid, pointless and not-that funny banter style from Family guy. Sure it was funny in his first 2-3 movies....but at this point it's beyond annoying.
