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.

They have the budget, they have Goldblum, Spiner & Pullman, they had a great story set up from the original, and they managed to blow all of it. Only Pullman comes out of it with his head held high. Jessie T. Usher and Liam Hemsworth are both painfully bad and extremely poorly directed. Every line is delivered devoid of any passion. The script is so full of cliches, that you constantly go from one to another.

I went in with an open and positive mind, but left the cinema baffled by what I had seen.

The Hank Williams movie.

What a let down and a disjointed mess. I was really hoping for good story telling that would really dive into his life. one second he's a broke musician, then he kind of records a song, the next he's playing the Opry. One minute he is banging his wife, the next she is divorcing him for his violent outbursts and behavior and extreme alcoholism yet never once even showing these things happen.
