I feel like if I had to guess what my review of this movie would be before I saw it, it would be exactly what LV has said so far. Guess that's one more I can skip.

You guys know this movie, Colossal? I don't know if you picked up on this, but the whole thing is a metaphor.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

He's getting back to his modelling roots. This movie makes me seriously question his acting ability.

The Devils Candy.

I loved Sean Byrne´s previous movie The Loved Ones, but this one felt off to me. Its not a bad movie, but feels there is something missing.
Ethan Embry is great tough.

Jonathan Levine is pretty good, so I'm hoping he can reign in Schumer's obnoxiousness.

I think 50/50 is the only film of Levine's that I've seen. It was okay.
